Nicely explained

ayy thanks buddy you're pretty cool

0:15 .. I did the part with hands and it worked magically :O

oka, I'm a long vim user giving his a try :D

been using vim willynilly then, just found out about help. 1 year of blind vimming and forgettable google searches gone in an instant. I've watched this video like multiple times now in the hopes of spoon feeding me knowledge, which is not good. thankfully i found :help, now the spoonfeeding era will be gone.

Emacs is decades old...how it uses tree-sitter?

I moved from oil to yazi, and am probably going to remove neotree as well. But i really enjoyed the way you explained things, especially as someone who doesnt have all the vim keybinds memorized

Amazing work. 20:38 Minor "typo", it should be twenty nine, instead of nine.

The voice is sooooo dreamy

hmm the configs changed since this video, for example the K for hover docs is gone, i know some other stuff like the error binds were changed cos the new nvim has it builtin but i cant find why that was removed, im not good with git yet

Two years on from the release of this video, I just want to say that although I cannot speak for others, I do know that there is definitely someone (me) who is actually following along with what you are showing, and learning from it, without any forceful expectation of anything further. I've been learning/using Vim, and now Neovim, for about seven years now, and it is truly inspiring to see the dedication and insight you have displayed in helping to bring the Vim code base to new heights. It's very clear that you lead by example, even to the point of Reading the Friendly Manual publicly in its entirety, taking that crude, old acronym and turning it into something a little more positive. Thank you, from one passionate user to another.

26:32 It's funny, I have the opposite expectation from (Neo)Vim: "different behavior from the same action under different contexts". One of the first modifications I did to this configuration was programming a Super-Tab (based on an example from LuaSnip docs)

I am in the process of learning Go and this video is pure gold. So jampacked with practical information to get started

I thought i twas cool

What is required for “onattach”?

@24:38 This reference made my day 😅😅😅

really amazing. i am going to look into ocaml :). and the library looks amazing. i hope to contribute if i am more comfortable with ocaml. you mentioned snapshot testing. will there be a video about it?

Do you still use it? How is it?

Am I dumb? Are things ilke va) & ci" not just vanilla vim commands?

Man, what a good project and video! I tried a few of the neovim distributions (NvChad, LazyVim, ...), and tried getting c++ working, but I kept struggling! This project is finally causing neovim to make sense! Thanks!!!!

great i didn't understand anything after the tutor bit i can barely hjkl i'm not ready for the rest lol

Jajaja soo funny

9 and a half hours😭

cool

tj bro, you are awesome xD

It was all fun and games until I am finishing the nvim Tutor and I am thinking "I've got this!" and then the Tutor tells me: :call mkdir(stdpath('config'),'p') :exe 'edit' stdpath('config').'/init.vim' 😁 I have everything to learn but so far I love it.

hey tj, what about part 3?

neovim thanda hai

Whew, this may save me from re-writing my OCaml web app in Rust/gleam... It's been so painful to use Caqti + Rapper (refuses to compile >.<)

So called coding is a "stupid" activity - it's human created "problem". Smart people created these digital machines and now millions trying to somehow work here. It should be legos or automated - IT industry was made unecessary ultra complicated. Leave it to the machines!

The original BASIC language, which predated C, had 1-based arrays. When I learned C, 0-based indexing threw me for a loop but later realized that 0-based indexing avoids many awkward situations. Nearly all programming is implementing logic, not math. When you use 1-based indexing, then the language has to constantly subtract one to get the pointer to point at the correct location in memory. That's a huge waste of CPU cycles. You based the premise of your entire argument that zero is a recent invention. It's not. The great pyramids at Giza couldn't be built without zero. Zero is not a recent concept but was, at one point, lost to time.

i'm writing my first neovim plugin, this is a great resource, thank you TJ! For recent viewers: 1:32:14 - you don't need these plugins, it's now built into neovim lua guide :)

Neat! It reminds me a lot of Ecto

I am stuck already at print. I use lazyvim and figured out how to load a local repo but print is never shown. I think this is lazyvim related but I don't get it. I see that the plugin is loaded.

I've watched about 10 different videos on Vim/NVim config and followed through... Between having 10 different approaches to organisation and to remapping, but also watching a video just to realize down the line that I needed to switch to Lua, or the package manager is not supported, do I use mason or not, which auto-complete, etc... it is exhausting. This is the best video (and way)! It gives you an opinionated starter but this video and the incode comments give you all the info for you to take control. Thank you so much!!!

A bit off topic, but what font is that in your editor?

Interested in this.

Would love to see more videos on this, I will watch every OCaml video I see

Awesome video Teej, keep up the good work! Is it possible to try something else instead of partial highlighted code plugin in neovim? I'm asking because at-least for me, it was tough to read what you were showing especially when the diagnostic messages and floating windows for the same were coming up. I think what I'm trying to say is that the combination of this plugin of highlighted codeparts don't really go well with floating windows, at-least for me, Thanks!

Well thought and thoroughly documented piece of software that is Telescope upon the great software that is Neovim. Thank you TJ for this great contribution.

Are the fields separate types according to the parent struct or does it only care that they are the same underlying type? For example when joining you had “User.id = Post.author”. Would this be an error if you had “User.id = Comment.post” or does it only care that the underlying type is an int?

love the function highlighting. what plugin is that?

Very much looking forward to seeing how you are doing the parsing and code gen at compile time, I am not familiar with Ocaml, but how the heck do you tell the compiler you are going to generate code from this string? Fascinating.

Would be really cool if you implemented an ability to compose a query dynamically, e.g. optional 'AND' or optional 'OR'.

Very cool! WOuld love to see more!

Awesome! Go has sqlc, but this is on another level. Ocaml definately needs something like this!

Is it possible to maybe extend sqlc to add support for Ocaml?

please more videos for sure!

Very neat usage of ppx and first class module! Never imagined these things would come together so well

It's neat that you can write your sql as a string. I'm using Esqueleto and it has a lot of operators and type magic to learn. The syntax of the dsl ends up looking like sql which is great but writing it as a string would be more intuitive for a lot of people.
