Electron Fiddle v0.23.0 introduces the long-awaited ability to add custom editors, alongside bug fixes and large infrastructure changes under the hood.
4,892 additions and 4,336 deletions, thanks to our contributors!
Highlight features
Custom editors
Arbitrary files can now be added via the Editors dropdown. This feature opens the door to many new use-cases for Fiddle. Load a second HTML file! Use service workers! The world is your oyster.
Improved version selection filters
The old unsupported filter was removed, and an obsolete filter was added to filter out Electron versions that have reached the end of their support cycle.
Environment variables
Similar to the existing ability to set user-defined CLI flags, you can now set environment variables through the Preferences > Execution settings panel.
Changelog

v0.22.0
Electron Fiddle v0.22.0 is a big one.
3,564 additions and 2,693 deletions, thanks to our contributors (v21.0.0..v22.0.0).
Highlight features
Auto-bisect
Electron Fiddle is often used in the context of the issue tracker to bisect exactly when a regression bug occurred. In a step toward making this process easier, Fiddle now can automatically mark a version as "good" or "bad" during the bisection process to narrow down the offending release with ease.
Try it out with our new File > New Test template!
Command line usage
In case you want to bisect without setting up the GUI (e.g. for automation purposes), you can also perform an auto-bisect from the command line. For example:
Example calls:
$ electron-fiddle bisect 10.0.0 11.2.0 --fiddle /path/to/fiddle
$ electron-fiddle bisect 10.0.0 11.2.0 --fiddle /path/to/fiddle --betas --nightlies
$ electron-fiddle test --version 11.2.0 --fiddle /path/to/fiddle
$ electron-fiddle test --version 11.2.0 --fiddle 8c5fc0c6a5153d49b5a4a56d3ed9da8f
$ electron-fiddle test --version 11.2.0 --fiddle https://gist.github.com/ckerr/8c5fc0c6a5153d49b5a4a56d3ed9da8f/
Smarter default templates
Previously, Electron Fiddle served you a single default template for all major versions >=2. This leads to problems when syntaxes in the quick-start app change between versions due to breaking changes.
Now, opening a new Fiddle with a specific version will fetch the contents from the equivalent branch in electron/electron-quick-start to ensure that your code works by default.
