It's important to notice that [neo]vi[m] is not a text editor, it has a text editor in which is called insert mode.

Thanks for your work. Will wait for the "how to make neovim into an IDE really quickly".

This is a super powerful idea! I really love the emphasis on fun as a disambiguate in factor in helping people make a good choice for them.

And for yet another take, Composition over Inheritance in this context: rather than nvim is-an editor or VSCode is-a IDE, we can think nvim has-a normal mode, has-a 'w' shortcut, etc., and VSCode has-a [insert here]. Compose away, and worry less about what these tools ARE.

This is great video TJ! I'm a VS Code user, but I really like the openness you bring to the Neovim community 🙌

Loved the video. I started learning git, wanted to learn SSH and cron to sync something, figured learn more about Linux, then came across vim and neovim. Feels like a huge new world has opened up.

Just discovered this channel - very interesting stuff. Choice of dev environment is so important for fast iteration cycles, yet for some reason I feel as though I'm never making the best choice. Good to get some education on it.

Yes, from someone tinkering with Nvim for just a month, I love the fun of it, and you give me hope for the fun being very long lasting! Really looking forward to the full IDE setup, I am still missing a couple of nice to haves from my setup, and converting it all to lua would be super sweet'

I can't express how much I resonate with your "faster" rant. I know for some people, the draw of being "more productive" or "working faster" in Vim/Neovim is present. I personally have *never* understood why, as my ability to be productive has never been limited by the amount of lines of code per minute I can edit. My productivity suffers when I get distracted easily, by getting frustrated with a part of my editor that I can't change that constantly gets in my way, or by just getting stuck mentally on the implementation of a feature. Improving my WPM or how fast i can edit text really does not increase my productivity by any significant amount 😆. I feel *most productive* when the amount of *mental overhead* that I have between thinking of the implementation I need to make and using my editor to make those changes is as low as possible. Not faster, just less *mental overhead*. When my editor gets in my way because of a dumb setting or feature I don't like, that adds extra overhead. When it is hard to find the thing I need in the project to edit, that's mental overhead. Neovim has allowed me to add and fall in love with a whole new class of tools (particular fuzzy searching, PLEASE GIVE ME FUZZY SEARCHING IN EVERY PROGRAM I USE) that lower my mental overhead. I can't remember exactly what file name I'm looking for most of the time, let alone which folder it's in. But using Telescope with Ripgrep lets me enter in AND MISTYPE OCCASIONALLY because i'm human, and still find the file I wanted quickly, and get out of my way afterwards. I cannot describe how much your work on Neovim and Telescope has made my dev experience more fun and takes mental burden off of my work and just lets me focus on what I want. It's a game changer to be able to see the preview of a file I'm searching for alongside searching for it with a fuzzy algorithm. It makes it so much easier for my brain to get what I want, because I don't have to be perfect. Neovim and the wide variety of awesome plugins lets me tell my editor what I want to do without having to put almost any thought into it, and stay in my mental flow on the feature I'm implementing. So thank you to the Neovim core team, all the Neovim plugin authors, and to yourself for being such a valuable educational resource to Neovim and a huge contributor to its success. Can't thank you enough! 😄

Here 1 year later to say Fuzzy searching (and Telescope) is the biggest reason i'm migrating to Neovim. The way it can actually find files when you make typos is awesome, really.

I totally agree with you, I just want to have fun coding, that's why I chose this way of life. I see that you have a lot of passion for what you do, thanks for sharing!

This is my first time watching this. I'm only about halfway through right now, but I love it. Absolutely love it. I've never agreed with a stance on development environment more. Thanks for sharing, I shall now go finish watching.

I love neovim and the direction it’s going. Thx for all the work you do.

Thank You for doing all this! :) From my own experience I would say that "Code Intelligence" is the most hardest part to get done "right" in Neovim. There are a lot of moving parts. A lot of outdated (confusing) plugins, a lot of competing LSP servers, etc. Some supports linting, some supports formatting, some does not support anything. And then you spend countless hours on searching the missconfiguration on your side on a feature which is not even implented in particular server. As example, we have null-ls and efm-langserver as generic LSP servers commonly used to run some formatters and linters, but the docs on those are slim. Lacking many aspects of integration with other common Nvim LSP tooling. And you are on your own to figure out cons and pros on one or the other for your particular context. Other thing is continiously evolving ecosystem. If your PDE works today, it does not mean it will work on a next clean setup. I am using Ansible to spin up my PDE and there was no single time when wy setup worked as expected out of the box (@latest). Every time there was API changes in some plugins and you must tweak your config and playbooks accordingly. Debugging. I still don't know how to debug my PDE configs efficiently. Is it my fault? Is it SOME plugins fault? Is it missing feature? And some stack traces are so weird that i just go back to disabling entire modules of my configs to find out the path where the error is coming from. How to efficiently organize your configs? Some throws everything into init.lua. Some uses //lua/user. I went the //lua/modules/lsp path so that i can enable or disable entire "logical" feature. For example i can disable entire completion thing with single boolean or commenting out single line. But in any case... this still is a wild wild gray area and i think clean configuration is essential for new users to get into experimentation without the fear of messing up their current setup. In any case, I am really enjoying "Lua-fication". I really enjoy discoverring new Vim jems every day. But sometimes i regret that i am spending way too much time on my PDE which i could spend on learning Go generics. :) For me it's a real FUN! Also... Neovim changed the way I do things. I discovered great note taking plugins which eliminate the need for Obsidian. Now all of my ideas, "how-to's", daylies, etc are right at my finger tips. That boosted my personal knowledge management tremendously! Thank You. :)

Thanks man. Your videos are helping me. Currently trying to set up neovim as my text editor in NixOS. nvim has been a staple of mine for every linux distro I've hopped to. Such a great product. Time to stop procrastinating and finish up my config with lsp's finally...

This is a good take and a good new jargon term. Thanks for the perspective and the kickstart video.

Hey TJ, thanks a lot for your work, tutorials and motivation on Neovim. For some reason since I use neovim, coding has become some sort of a game to me, I'm having tons of fun using Nvim, playing around and configuring it. 👍❤️ (reminds me of good old days when I was creating WoW macros to customize my gameplay 😂)

Since you mentioned emacs, another interesting term I've seen thrown around some times is Intergrated Computing Environment (ICE) or Unified CE (UCE) which I think perfectly describes the difference of emacs and any other regular IDE or PDE.

Thanks for your such wonderful and informative video❤.

What you said, resonated with me. The moment I saw how in VIM one can quickly move around and edit code with shortcuts, it made sense to me, Last two years, I tried to find shortcuts in VS code to help me move and select code faster. I was struggling with that. VIM was the answer all along.

Love the vids Teej!

What I really want to know is what's on slides 8 through 18… ;) On a more serious note, love this concept of PDE! It really does explain how I've felt about "code editors" but was never able to really coalesce into a concept…

With neovim I have fun but also regret (due to how fun it is to try and tinker new things and how easy it is to lose time -not really losing time as you are learning new things but you get my point-). But damn, it is so much fun. Btw, definitely going to use the PDE concept.

Love this content teej!

I deeply realted to this PDE kind of thing, specially the scriptable part. I have a bunch of lua and shell scripts that I can invoke from inside neovim, scripts that might even use tmux to run some commands for me on the side, and this is what makes me productive, and also what sometimes impress people, but it is also the spot where I have the most fun. I have some commands that only makes sense for the very specific project I have right now, and maybe when I change teams/jobs etc, I'll have to rebuild them. And to be fair, this is not even a bad thing, quite the opposite. That's the whole point for me, personalize my terminal, my editor, my window manager, put everything together to make something ridiculously personalized and good, while having fun at it.

Funny that you bring this term, as this is how I describe it to people unfamiliar to Vim/NeoVim. I use the term Personalized Text Editor, but PDE makes more sense in the context of computer programming. Nice video, by the way.

Great video (that is also my way of thinking) but one questeion: Which tool did you use to create your slides for the presentation?

Listen, I REALLY like your slides, can you share how you make them?

I like that concept of PDE, it's never been presented to me as an option, not sure if I'm going to like it but I'm interested in trying. I haven't used LUA, so I hope that's not a prerequisite for your "Instant IDE" tutorial. I do like your statement of "getting 1% better every day". There's been times I tried to use other text editors' macro language and found it hard to edit. Just learning vim I'm using registers like crazy. Adding and appending. 26 registers? Yes please! If you were looking for more general programming courses maybe show how you'd use neovim in the life of a programmer You could make a series out of it - Python with neovim - Django with neovim (this would be interesting, how do you shape neovim to accept generated projects?) - C# with neovim (same) - Rust with neovim Maybe partnering with someone who has that programming expertise if you don't

Hi, TJ! I love your idea and your video, too. I just want to use neovim to edit projects like onnxrutime, pytorch etc. which combine python and cpp code. My lsp config can work properly in the python code. But it cannot find the definition of cpp code. It works fine for simple cpp file beacause I have "clangd" and neovim plugin installed. Do you have any ideas about how making lsp working on a project which involves more than one language? That can be done by VSCode with C/C++ plugin. Thx, bro!

soooo cooolll !!!! is there a plugin for intelligent code-folding in neovim ? I use them a lot and would make my entry easy to try out neovim. super thanks

For anyone who watches a million vim videos like me, but is iffy about making the jump, you can also slowly convert to vim if vim looks interesting at all to you. When I tried to jump straight in I was overwhelmed and had to take a step back. I started with neovim plugin with vscode, got fast with motions and stuff, made simple key bindings in my vimrc. Now I'm using AstroVim(fancy defaults basically) with some custom bindings in lua My goal is to make my own minimal config, I just havent had the time with work and life.

I 100% agree with emphasizing FUN rather than speed when discussing the advantages of Neovim. The same argument goes for the whole modal keyboard driven Vim grammar based editing style that Neovim offers: it's FUN and satisfying. Yes, as a side effect you become fast and efficient, but that isn't the primary driver.

Great talk!

Thanks to neovim my work now is a hobby

hopefully one day I will manage to be a neovim wizard like you tj :D

PDE tweaks have the same appeal as building a PC - it’s super intimidating from the outside, it’s essentially putting together LEGOs in most cases once you’re familiar with the ecosystem, and if you want to you can do just about anything you want (analogous to totally custom PC parts, you mostly don’t need them but they can be really cool to fiddle with).

thank you!

A few things: This hits hard about development over starting your own business. For the record, my business venture is contingent on my being able to program to build it which will inevitably bring about the need to develop an extention or two to share with everyone (or hopefully add to what's already here) I got TOASTED at work (nothing bad, I learned a lot, but I also had to re-evaluate my time spend away from family. BUT TODAY all that time started to finally pay off, and it feels amazing! I think I'll be shaking the burnout quickly. Looking forward to the grind with you all and neovim, it's great! (Hearing you on "don't make the argument 'that's what it's faster'") YAY for GO! :D Treesitter Demo :mindblown (it's seriously amazing, looking forward to learning more about it) #PDE I have saved your videos with Bashbunni where you showed a little more in-depth about plugins and you started to show how to made the error snippet. I'd like to do something like this for other languages, that I use a lot and are likely used by others. Love to see this further. Also, my editor hangs when I close it.

How have you done those slides? :o

Which software is this that Tj is using to present the slides?

I must say that that context-aware snippet example is the first argument that makes me want to try neovim. However, I work in dotnet, and oh boy, the tools are GOOD. I use Rider (basically IntelliJ + Resharper), I even installed the EasyMotion plugin, tried the idea-vim mode, but didn't like it. Maybe it will click in later. Why I won't switch fully? In Rider I can do all I need and still don't use 90% of the functionallity. There are snippets, but for me it's often faster to type out the stuff with autocomplete (it's way faster if you have Copilot :P) than to remember the snippet name. Renaming stuff can also rename directories if necessairy (you can rename a project within a solution, crazy thing to do in the past :D) I can query the database, and once it's connected, I get type-safe SQL code completion. It knows the tables, columns types etc. It's way better than pgAdmin at being pgAdmin, really. I can manage my Docker host (add/remove images, spin up containers, rename them, connect via ssh etc), I can manage my Kubernetes cluster (not just local, ANY cluster, just like Lens). I can hit F5 and have 4 different apps do Docker build and attach debugger, then open Chrome and attach debugger to it also. And since Rider is IntelliJ, you get WebStorm built in. I can run unit test on file save, with build done in the background. With one click I can debug the test. I get inline coverage indicators, that change colors depending on tests success. And there are plugins! For basic stuff, like Vue.js, Prettier, Ci/CD yamls, Helm charts (you can run the charts from Rider!). There are plugins like InlineError (ErrorLens from VS Code, you get all errors inline) that just make the thing even better. then there plugins that fix wierd crap, like Scratchpad (creates a file in your temp folder, because you cannot have new not-saved file). There is a plugin for vim-mode, and there is a plugin that shakes the screen and created sparkles everytime you type, while also counting streaks and bonuses and playing sounds when you reach next level, and it has achievements :D Yes, it starts a bit slower than vim or even VS Code... But just don't shut it down. 2 project? 2 instances, problem solved. If you use that too much, just get more RAM - it's worth it. IDE is about integrating as much as you can into one tool - I still use Git Extension as Git GUI, because it just can so much more there. But I don't need Lens, I don't really need Docker Desktop, I don't need documentation for libraries (it's all in the code), and I have fun :)

I really like your take, it does describe what I'm doing and how I see it. I'm not a fan of the acronym but IDE is terrible too ^_^ so whatever. When I'm not on my desktop, multi screen setup, I want something that works exactly like on my desktop. I don't want to have multiple workflows as I have already enough in my life with work and kids. For me it's mostly this: - vscode input lag is terrible when you write a lot. But the remote feature is a killer feature if you've a great homelab for example. - any intellij derivates is too much for me and I'm allergic to anything Java/JVM. Sorry, scars from the past 😅 - sublime text is superbly responsive. However, there is no remote mode and I really like that feature. Sublime text due to its customizability and plugin sets was the reason I used it for so long btw. - neovim with Lua is kinda responding to what I need with a reproducible environment in addition to be fast. 0.8 is bringing remote TUI. Now what I'm looking for is some kind of standardisation/homogeneity around shortcuts. I think neovim distos are kinda bringing that in. And I believe this is why those who use emacs effectively have been using it for so long and are unable to move. It's memory muscle, because at the end of the day we need to be productive.

Use a vim extension for vscode so you can slowly get more familiar and productive with vim keybindings. You can still use VsCode without those keybindings whenever vim is too much. 2. Start with Neovim-Distribution such as NvChad, AstroVim, LunarVim etc. so you don't have to configure everything from the get go. Overtime you can either mod the distribution to suit your needs or even start a neovim config from scratch.

Anyone know how to make Neovim as fast as VSCode? What I mean by speed is literally scrolling through files and movements. VSCode is lightning faster compared to Neovim from my experience.

I used to use VScode, but I really wanted use Neovim, and when I asked my mates how I could get it, they said that I don’t need it…I disagreed, because…and I didn’t know why…now I understand that It was because I would have liked to have fun and all I needed was PDE, it’s awesome. But anyway I don’t know how to use LSP and Treesitter and I only have started my way to learn all this things.

I would like to use snippets that way!!

I like jetbrains products as a beginner. They just make coding more frictionless and help me focus on the code instead of fixing environment issues. Just my take but nvim looks so cool I just can’t comprehend it yet lol.

its priceless. the slickness and the passion of the devs. priceless. what is cheaper and better than soft? Piracy is NOT the answer if you
