Honestly… everybody should try out neovim for at least a week. I mean like… fully commit to it.
It’s just amazing how fast and light on resource usage it is, compared to vscode.
For reference: I just opened qmk_firmware which has a shit load of clang code and files. Guess what, neovim doesn’t even break a sweat, while vscode almost burns my CPU.
Debugging is kind of a weak point in vim to be honest, there is a plugin called termdebug which comes bundled with vim that can do gdb debugging ok, but anything more complicated mostly just feels like a lot more work and a bit more jank than just using vscode.
I use just as well, it’s a more vimy approach than something more tightly integrated so that makes sense.
Helix is nice, but I don’t think I could leave behind some of my vim plugins, fugitive in particular is an integral part of my git workflow. Haven’t used the kakoune editing model enough to really decide if I think it’s better than vim personally.
oh, never tried fugtive. I just made a keybind that opens lazygit inside of a helix buffer :D
