Suggestions avoid obvious comment and string contexts to reduce distractions. • Privacy-first local editing with no analytics or telemetry. Neon Vision Editor is built for developers, writers, students, sysadmins, and anyone who wants a fast native editor without Electron, plugin ecosystems, or full IDE complexity. Privacy The app does not collect analytics, usage telemetry, advertising identifiers, device fingerprints, or background behavioral metrics. No automatic data transmission to developer-controlled servers occurs. AI-assisted code completion is optional. External communication occurs only when you enable AI completion and choose an external provider in Settings. When AI completion is used, the app sends only the minimal text context needed to generate a suggestion, usually text near the cursor or active selection. It does not automatically transmit project folders, unrelated files, file-system contents, contacts, location data, or device identifiers. API keys for external AI providers are stored securely in the system Keychain and are sent only to the provider you select for a completion request. External AI communication uses encrypted HTTPS connections. When AI completion is disabled, the app makes no AI-related network requests.
