EDIT: the title used to be "oni: better than vim, atom and VSCode". It seems the title comes from the submitter here, rather than the web page. I've looked at this, and as a VSCode user, it is not at all a useful replacement, it's barely usable for me. Also VSCode has a lots of useful plugins, which aren't support here. I'm sure if I learnt all the vim shortcuts it would be great but then I'm using VSCode because I don't like vim.

This is exactly why I moved from Oni to VSCode with neovim embedded. Oni was just way too slow and i couldn't use the plugins i needed from my previous vim setup. I switched to VSCode and now I get best of both worlds!

  How do you embed neovim in VSCode?

    The vim extension for VSCode can use neovim for Ex-commands, though that's still an 'experimental' feature.

To respond to this and the child comment, since Oni is a wrapper that communicates with an actual neovim process, most (neo)vim plugins should be useable with Oni. I've had great success simply telling Oni to read my existing init.vim (that I use with neovim in regular terminals) and my 20+ plugins just working. Whether or not Oni provides additional utility over a standard (neo)vim in a terminal is probably dependent on personal preference. There is also definitely a cost to the use of Electron, I typically have 4 or 5 windows running at a time, one for each project I work on, and it uses about a GB of RAM in total, so if you're on a memory-tight system you may not want to stick with terminal vim.
