Currently you see a bunch of programmers divided into two camps. Those that prefer the vimish style and those that don't want to deal with the yak shaving and prefer tons of features.
The thing is these qualities are not actually tradeoffs in principle they are only tradeoffs by circumstance.
- 0x445442 6y agoWhy not the IntelliJ Vim plugin with Clion? I think the better distinction is Vim for editing text, IDE for performing non text editing tasks.
- Geminidog 6y agoIt's less about the key mappings and more about the portability and lightweight nature of vim. So Clion runs on java and is really heavy while vim can be spun up instantly while you're sshed into any machine. I want both of these features combined.
