Show HN: LudvigEditor – A lightweight Python alternative to Electron editors

A code editor built on Python 3.14 + PyQt6 + QtWebEngine. It uses Monaco Editor (the same engine as VS Code) without Electron.

Key features: built-in Git GUI, extension system (Python/JS), integrated terminal, support for 20+ languages.

Technical Focus: Seeking feedback on integrating PyQt6 with QtWebEngine for creating native desktop applications with web components. Licensed under GPLv3.
