Neovim has plenty of IDE stuff! What do I gain using a horribly bloated Electron app. Maybe there's an argument when you're working in a group that standardized on VSCode. But Neovim is quite popular these days.
I've used the neovim extension using neovim remote and it's not a good experience, the two just clash together too much to make it enjoyable.
- QuadrupleA 2y agoI've used the combo for 4+ years now and love it. I find VS code has far better out of the box intellisense, refactoring, language support, etc. and I prefer the IDE style environment rather than (neo)VIM's clunky windowing/buffers/splits etc. and janky GUI windowing shells. But whatever, to each their own.
- lambdaba 2y agoFair, to me being able to ctrl-z to a shell, open quickly, be absolutely snappy at all times, etc. is paramount to the Vim experience. VSCode has nothing on Vim with a good LSP config, granted, it can be overwhelming for beginners, but it's not that hard. It's an investment for sure, OTOH, I'm also a NixOS user :P.
