Create extension to provide custom cell Editor

Hi,
I am trying to understand the moving part to create a lab extension to provide alternative cell editor for code cell. Looking at docs and example is not clear to me how to wire the factory part with a custom editor and what protocol / api contract must be fulfilled.

Is there any example or documentation I should be looking at?

Thank you for the help
Diego

Hey @colombod, this is not easy. In the past I started some work on using Monaco instead of codemirror. Although this was for 0.35, you may find some useful information on that PR https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab-monaco/pull/23/files

Will look at it, thank you. So that pr is aimed at replacing code mirror editor as cell editor right?
