When I first tried Vim, I was frustrated with the amount of work needed to build an environment that’s on par with the IDE features I use in IntelliJ. Neovim is easier to customize, and Lua > Vimscript.
That said I still gave up and mostly stick to IntelliJ/VSCode. I do use Vim bindings in both editors because it helps me code faster. Neovim can be embedded into other applications so in a way I’m still a Neovim user.
NeoVim. Endlessly customizable, quick to start, and can offer whatever niche feature you’d like. Did I say it was endlessly customizable?
Same here. I’ve used vim/neovim for decades now.
I hated configuring it then (in vimscript). I hate configuring it now (in lua).
What GUI or terminal emulator do you use to run Neovim?
Not OP, but I’ve been using Kitty for ages and love it. A GPU term is a must IMO.
