Quill-IDE for Godot

s1

Tested on:

Godot 4.6 RC2

A modern, feature-rich script editor for the Godot Engine (4.4+).
Quill IDE is a heavily modified fork of the original Script-IDE plugin by Marius Hanl, rebuilt for style, usability, and modularity.

Think of it as Godot's Script Editor — but sleeker and way more customizable.

IMPORTANT: This was made with PassiveStar's Minimal Theme in mind, this might not look good on Godot's Default theme. But with a bit of tinkering you can make it look good with default theme.

MY PREFERRED THEME (This might look different from the Cover Image):

Note: As of Godot 4.6 You don't need to add Minimal theme as this was integerated inside godot itself. Editor Settings > Interface > Theme (Advanced Settings Toggle turned on)"

  • Base Color: #1d222a
  • Accent Color: #fd9700
  • Icon Saturation: 1.5
  • Corner Radius: 5
  • Base Spacing: 3
  • Custom Theme: Minimal Theme

Editor Settings > Text Editor > Theme"

🚀 Known Bugs

  1. Changing theme color bugs the Tab themeing so after changing, Disable and then Re-enable the plugin.
