I'm using neovim all the time, but I don't find this "zipping through the code" to be very critical. Most of the time is spent on thinking and analyzing it, not on fast typing or jumping through it.
- shimman 9mo agoMaybe but I often find the bottle neck between thoughts in my head is often the speed of which I can put them in motion, with that in mind vim motions are an absolutely amazing way to interact with a keyboard efficiently. When using any new software my first thought is often how can I map these actions to vim motions and enable a full keyboard experience.
- tecoholic 9mo agoDepends on what you are doing. When it’s a large codebase, trying to debug or understand a implementation, hitting * to cycle through the occurrences in a file, “gd” to jump to the function definition, Ctrl+o to go to previous position are crucial.
- shmerl 9mo agoI sure use Ctrl-O, Ctrl-I, * and N / Shift-N etc. Though for definitions I rely on LSP and Ctrl-] most of the time. Never really used gd.
