Would love to see if people have a good experience with this. The only thing keeping me on neovim is the ergonomics of my config. If I can have that, PLUS the discoverability of all the LSP features, hovering, consolidated error messages, e

This looks like a nice way to add some features to your website. But to all reading: Overlays are NOT the way to make your website accessible. They frequently do not work as intended, and sometimes even harm accessibility [0]. One particula
