Documentation

You might want it if:

  • You're working with really massive text files, and you will be doing frequent content manipulations here and there

  • You need to frequently convert between line:col based addressing and index based addressing

  • You will be doing both of above, thats the best use case, as TextStore uses caches, and re-computes only whats really needed

  • You have two libraries/apps where one uses line:col based addressing and other uses index based, TextStore can act as glue code

TextStore really shines when an instance is used frequently and not just once or twice. First call to, for example indexToPosition will be significantly slower as that's when TextStore will build it's internal cache, which is used to serve subsequent calls at lightning speeds
