A year ago, I discovered your channel. I was at the impass, not sure if It is wise to pursuit a new career as an Web dev or continue with Manufacturing. A year has gone by, although I am still have yet made it, but your video has ignite the drive in me once more. Thank you very much Update: I got a job as back-end dev and has started working, persistence and preservation paid off.

[@standylixgames7757]

congrats, what technologies did you learn prior to getting the job.

[@AVNGwebdev]

@@standylixgames7757 I started out learning webdev using Django, then learned how to create Api using DJRest framework, after that I learned how to deploy on AWS. However, current position required my know-how from Manufacturing domain and Data analytics more than my webdev experience.

[@AnVuNguyen-ye9bq]

@@standylixgames7757 Sorry for this very late reply, I learnt python-stack dev prior getting the job (data analytics focus like pandas, matplotlib, seaborn, web dev like Django, FastApi, SQL, HTML, CSS, DevOps skills suchas CICD pipeline building, Docker, Github Action, Gitlab etc). Edit: additionally this is my main account, thus I did not get notification of your comment, hope that you have found a position.

i use neovim today due to his videos, i was wanting to see a 'full picture' of the art before i migrate to it, the starter scenario is boring, so it motivated me to change, aesthetics, man

It is. He's literally running the most basic bash commands, except the git clone at the beginning. The problem is not neovim, but the amount of things you're missing.

[@tomasnadvornik2826]

My favorite ASMR to work to. The rapid typing somehow makes me want to work and be more productive. Switches make a very nice sound but the main thing is definitely the speed. I've tried listening to other programming ASMRs but their slow typing irritates me. It's a shame the wind makes my eardrums almost pop but nevertheless I still keep coming back to this vid. Keep up the great work, love your content.

[@prabhjotschadha1153]

I've been a follower since the start of your channel and have used your Vim config for 1.5 years; it's become a habit. Thanks to you and theprimeagen for that. Your videos, featuring beautiful, peaceful places and the soothing sound of your keyboard, are something I really enjoy. Keep up the fantastic work! I'm also a fan of your blogs. Great job!

[@wendersonbarros1900]

I'm happy you are back with videos on this channel, Takuya!

[@PatAndCode]

For all new starters I would recommend avoiding too many custom keymaps unless you're 100% you want this and double checked it's not something that vim comes by default. I feel like some people go so crazy with customising that if you would give them barebone vim to work on, even just edit couple files they would struggle to navigate around and do the simplest stuff - it's a trap! :D

[@0xcoffee427]

can you help me set up the solarized-osaka theme ? i configured it but it doesn't look like exact solarized osaka , some colors are different for example the back ground is transparent but grey in color not the base color solarized-osaka uses. If i type :help it opens a pane below and it shows the correct solarized-osaka color but not transparent though and editor color is grey . I dont know how to get it working.

This is the most aesthetic programming related video I've ever seen.

[@gravityshark580]

I learnt about C-w in this video and it really seems like a game changer for me, not normal mode C-w manage windows, but in insert mode C-w deletes a word. I think this is from emacs because this also works on my shell which probably uses emacs bindings. This is amazing as I would no longer do something like in a comment to delete the comment string o - new line ESC _ - first non whitespace character C - change line and would just do o - new line C-w - delete comment string that's an entire 2 keys saved It also works in the cmdline when im doing a lsp rename i could just do C-w instead of just tapping backspace a bunch of time because ctrl or alt-backspace doesnt work normally. I really like looking at how other people use (n)vim and see what will be the best way to navigate for me.

[@m1dway]

This is what i called the samurai of coding. The location, the vibe, everything. Keep up the good work bro.. keep us posted with this kind of posting. I'm using your video as an ASMR background noise to keep me consentrated while i'm coding

[@klirmio21]

Was it worth it? How is it better than visual studio code?

[@BromanThings]

​@@klirmio21 I can't speak for the person above, but it's been one year for me. It's been a complete game changer for my productivity. I can't give one or two big reasons to convince you switch to NeoVim. I CAN say that NeoVim offers thousands of teeny improvements that collectively make VSCode feel obsolete (to me). A few highlights: Vim Hotkeys are a godsend, and NeoVim lets you expand on them x100. I don't reach for my mouse anymore. VSCode offers a "Vim" plugin which I recommend you start with, but navigating the VSCode IDE still necessitates a mouse in many ways, and the VSCode hotkey editor is quite limited. This is where NeoVim really shines. Neovim is lightweight with almost 0 startup times. Linting/parsing/autocomplete/syntax highlighting becomes incredibly snappy/fast. This might not matter to you unless you're working on very large-scale projects where VSCode starts to struggle. Neovim workspaces can be uniquely personal to you. For example: VsCode has one file-explorer option - it can render left, or right. Nvim has tons of open-source, community made plugins for every minute feature, that you can install and configure exactly to your liking. All this in mind, learning how to setup and manage a neovim configuration daunting for beginners. The ongoing meme with neovim is that you're so busy customizing your editor, that you won't get any actual programming done. For me, this isn't a problem. Last year I followed a neovim video similar to this one, and over time I've made many small tweaks to make it my own. I recommend you give it a try!

[@adityayagnik1161]

Thanks for the update! I’ve been wanting to get into neovim for a while and I really like your setup! Also love the presentation of this video!

[@rafaeloledo]

The most important thing for me in the LazyVim is the extras section. It standardize the core for the editor. But does not end here. For example, i'm on Windows btw, just adding the import of java extras, it works. 19:10 So, i can focus on customizing minor things that are personal. But on needy greedy Java, typescript things, the community can work together to lower the time spent for the users like vscode. I just download Java extension and it works.

tip to "follow along" 1. Understand basic neovim/lazyvim concepts 2. Read through config files which interest you (including comments) 3. Look at the videos for the sections to understand thought process and explinations Watching from beginning to end may not be the best way for most people to consume code, so try not to complain that this is what he publishes on his channel and find a better way to utilize it if it's not for you.
