I love this. Never knew you could make vim similar to vscode. But the best part was the ending. "Yeah so I did all this work to make Vim like VSCode to fix an issue with lag, but then realized the problem wasn't VSCode at all!" Yeah, the language server is slow. Its slow enough that to improve performance, now a much smaller subset is loaded on file load while the rest of it loads in the background, in vsc

[@lost4468yt]

I'd recommend fzf and ranger instead of NerdTree. NerdTree is slow, doesn't work well with tabs, makes it hard to pick exactly which buffer you want something opened in, etc. I use fzf to quickly jump to a file I know (or roughly know) the name or directory of. Then I use ranger (not normal range, vim ranger, which just runs ranger in nvim) if I need to actually browse the directory structure because I want to get a better understanding of iit, or because I don't know what I'm looking for.

[@florianhennig4778]

Hi! Great video, actually my setup is very similar. As others mentioned: I'd recommend giving fzf a try. The huge advantage is that you can enable a preview window of the search location, which is neat. Also there is vim-clap now that kind of emulates the floating window you get when hitting ctrl-p in VScode.

No using Vim first is better, VSCode should on be used for big projects, suppose say you are creating an OS, I will recommend to use IDE for editing and managing files (Editing only because you can't run an OS on an IDE).

[@winter_light]

I do not recommend coming to Vim with the mindset of creating an IDE in your terminal. That said, Vim is a very powerful tool and if you invest the time to learn how it works it will take you very far. In other words, use Vim for all it’s worth before looking for a plugin to help you out. Anyone who (like me) jumps right to installing a bunch of plugins-whether in a spree of grabbing anything that looks interesting or just to copy someone else’s configuration-will likely end up with an unmaintainable mess of a tool that doesn’t work consistently, may not work at all or works about as slow as the IDE you wanted to break free of.

[@rewindyourmind321]

Hey! I know it's been a while but I'm curious - I'm currently running IntelliJ with a Vim plugin but am thinking of using NeoVim as a secondary text editor. Do you have any suggestions so far as what should and shouldn't be implemented within Vim? I'm trying to conceptualize how my workflows would look between the two. Thanks!

[@winter_light]

@@rewindyourmind321 Hi, Sorry for the late response. I think the decision to use Neovim as a secondary text editor is a good one. Neovim comes with sane defaults. I would suggest starting with a clean config. Don't straight away use it for work. Play with it casually until you get a hang of it. Figure out what feature are a must for you and see how that can be tackled without any plugins. If it requires multiple keystrokes, then assign it to a keybinding. Do the same for other stuffs that you do frequently. Anything that makes you more productive is a win. I am not against plugins, but take your sweet time to get there so that you really know that you need a plugin to do so. These days I am mostly using emacs. After a certain point I reached a few things in Vim that I couldn't get around without being hacky. I also felt that emacs provided more value and better packages and overall a cohesive environment that works consistently for my usecases. There's no overhead of choosing between lua and vimscript or vimscript9. There's no headache of changing terminal theme to make you editor theme work well and a few other great packages like org mode and magit were killers for me in the switch.

In VsCode, things are good but autocomplete is slow on large projects so I migrated to vim by setting up some plugins .. but before I could set up plugins - Installed a plugin that could set up plugins - Browsed through a list of Vim plugin managers - Went through the docs of my selected plugin manager Then I setup my Vim coding environment by - Setting up autocomplete by - setting up a language server, by looking up documentation for my specific language and spending some time on trial and error - setting up snippets - setting up bracket matcher - (three more things) - Setting up my file explorer - setting up modified status for my files but Vim is to good for such an insignificant thing so I installed an extension that marks my files as modified even if I happen to open them - file icons? Vim too good for dat, so I show text instead of file icons. But the text didn't show up so - installed a special system-wide font for showing file icon text in the file explorer - writing code for file explorer to automatically select my current file - gazed victoriously on the awesome code that I wrote for my file explorer to HIGHLIGHT CURRENT FILE - setting up fuzzy file lookup by - setting up special configuration on my terminal emulator because it wouldn't work without that - had to ignore everything ignored by git for performance reasons - an additional "feature" I get by it is being unable to lookup files and class definitions in libraries. Probably it is not the Vim way anyway. - Not telling you but I sure did - Setup a status bar - then was disappointed when my previously installed system-wide font didn't have icons for status bar so - I looked up and installed a different system-wide font - Struggled with tabs vs buffers for a while ... but after spending all this time, I felt rewarded when the autocomplete on my large TS project was, still very slow, but as a bonus all other things were clunky as well. Perhaps, that's the Vim way.

What you're saying about vim being better because it's more minimal and faster than vscode, but vscode being better because the features seem more polished got me thinking there's a market for something in the middle.
