How Can I Make A Tabbed IDE?

Hello! Recently (about a week or so) ago I made a html ide/editor and the syntax highlighting is ok but there are problems with it. I'm not too focused on that right now what I need is to make it automatically tab for me when I press return/enter. I made pressing tab work but what if you don't wanna put a billion tabs?

So Basically I need it to auto indent for me.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Note:
If you wanna help with the syntax highlighting you can help with that too :D

Well, that's not really super simple to do, it would be easier to first get code-intelligence before you can add the tabs, because like if you had this:

<head>

it wouldn't actually tab correctly unless it knew where in HTML it would be.

I know it would be hard but I'm up for the challenge :D @Coder100

it's a super weird bug tho, are you using regex? @Battledash2

Yup, I could group it and use the lazy operator to fix it though. Just on mobile rn
