Neovim is Better

I’ve never experienced a program with such power and potential than Neovim. It does so much and we are at the beginning as it isn’t even to a 1.0 release yet. The best part is the program works on Windows, MacOS, and Linux.

Original Vim Video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmmbqpeQi8igZ9U Neovim Article: Website Guide: christitus.com/neovim-is-better/ P.S. - I'm still a beginner in Neovim and do make mistakes, such as tree-sitter being used for syntax highlighting, NOT file explorer lol. My way of learning is to make videos about my conceptions and then read comments on anything I did wrong. Then fix any mistakes and grow faster. KZbin is amazing at picking up skills and crowd sourcing knowledge. Hopefully you see value in these experiences to help know what to expect.

[@RenderingUser]

But have you tried Neovide tho?

[@chrismccullough2607]

I have to say, seeing you hold J or K to move up & down the file hurts me. I highly recommend using ctrl+u & ctrl+d to move up & down your file by a half-page at a time. You can also use something like "30j" to move 30 lines down. I also tend to use "/" & "?" to search forward & backward a lot; this is a huge time & thought saver. I know this all is a bit more work & thought initially, but once you're used to it, you will move faster & more naturally through files. P.s.: If you want to break the holding j & k habit, you can use something like `:noremap jj ` to make it too slow to move that way for a while.

Treesitter is not a filetree. It is used for better syntax highlighting in files.

[@crazytechguy5735]

Yup, its nvim-tree for lua. I guess there is another spin for those using .vim files as well.

[@gabe_owner]

@@crazytechguy5735 Nvim-tree is a file explorer, but Treesitter is a tool for structural, high-speed code analysis to provide accurate and possibly advanced syntax highlighting, among other things.

[@crazytechguy5735]

@@gabe_owner OP was clarifying about filetree and not treesitter, thus my comment about nvim-tree. I guess, Titus mistook tresitter for filetree in the video which probably should be nvim-tree . I just added to OP's clarification. Agreed on your Treesitter explanation however.

[@Qizot]

It is not the only use case. You can use its AST to do tons of refactoring like extraction part of code into a new function, swapping order of parameters in a function with one mapping and a lot more

[@nikfp]

Thanks Chris for making this video! Something helpful to be aware of: Inside Neovim you can enter the command ":help rtp" which will pull up the documentation for runtime paths. It starts out with a listing of the paths nvim will search for configs to run and roughly in what order, and you can scroll down to get more information. You can make use of the "after" directory to place configs that need to run at the end of setup. Picture these scenarios: 1) You have multiple plugins that can interact with each other, and you need to make sure they are both loaded before you run the config to connect them. 2) You have config for something that depends on that thing being loaded first. 3) You have a plugin setup that changes something when it runs, and you want to change it back after the plugins sets itself up. In all these cases, By using the "after" directory, you move those configuration steps to later in the initialization process and you can guarantee they run at the right time.

I've been trying to learn how to config neovim for working with react for a while now and I can't seem to find a way to make it work as well as vscode when it comes to autoimports, recognizing node modules' contents etc. It's so sad to me cause i really love vim motions and am really passionate about customizing my setups :(

[@nikfp]

2 things that might help you out: 1) VSCode has a neovim plugin that embeds Nvim right into VSCode. Keep the things you like with VSC, but use all the Vim motions, etc. 2) Kinda hard to find this without someone pointing it out, but in Nvim for the LSP setup, you need to set up parts for the language server AND Neovim talking to the language server (lsp itself) AND ui components to surface and display the LSP info. Then you need to set up how the language server attaches to the buffer when you open a certain file type, which is wildly customizable also. It's a bit of work but once it works it's rock solid. TJ Devries did a series on his channel with BashBunni that you should check out. They walked through setting up Nvim, setting up LSP, creating a plugin of your own with Lua and setting up debuggers.

[@donjon61]

While I can absolutely understand why one would use Powershell on Windows for Vim/Neovim I actually found neovim-qt much nicer to work with as it doesn't have that incomplete feeling.

I use init.vim because I can just use the configuration on any machine that has vim installed

[@night_h4nter]

that's a nice introduction to neovim. even i, being a (neo-)vim user for like 2+ years, have learned something one thing i would strongly recommend you to do, is to pin the plugin versions (check your plugin manager docs on how to pin the version to be installed to a certain revision/tag). some plugin developers use their master/main branches as dev branches, or just don't have branching whatsoever, which makes those plugins break periodically from installation to installation (or upon an upgrade). this happens because the plugin devs may develop their plugins with nightly version in mind, which breaks compatibility/introduces new features in api, which, in turn, makes the latest stable version at best and the nightly version at worst a requirement for those plugins to work. this is especially true for telescope and lsp-/linting-specific plugins iirc. and of course, you, being a debian user, obviously won't necessarily have even the latest stable, never mind nightly, version easily available to you. it has caused a lot of frustration for the guy behind lunarvim (and a couple of other similar projects like this) in the past, because people were constantly coming to him with support request when another plugin breaks. the next level of nerdiness is to always compile whatever version of neovim you want (the guy behind lunarvim has at least discussed this and done so on stream), but it's probably not something you need to worry about also, regarding the guy behind lunarvim (and neovim from scratch, and some other project too), you may want to check his channel out, he explains a lot about neovim and stuff related to it

P.S. i should probably try it out again with your video.

[@_zetrax]

I used neovim for the past 6 months on windows started using it on windows 10 then windows 11, FYI I started using vim a couple of years ago. TLDR, it's so terrible. I used it both on WSL and natively, it all boils down to the emulator, the emulation host is great but it lacks so much. Even on Windows Terminal, it's slow enough to irritate someone. I'm a developer, I mainly work with JavaScript. When working with JS you should have a very fast experience because it's going to be reading a bunch of small files from node_modules, and I don't think windows has a mature console platform to enable that usecase. Even with Alacritty, it's still unusable. WSL even crashes for me on large projects using neovim. However, I tried emacs. On windows, I didn't download it. I built it from source using a --with-native-compilation and --with-json option and Doom Emacs, it's light years ahead compared to neovim because of the dedicated UI emacs has. Tried both using `treesitter` and `lsp`, emacs `lsp-mode`. Chris, I highly suggest you compare them

So what's the exact benefit from lua over vim script?

Vim script had a simple copy paste function, but I wanted to do the following: - Copy from Clipboard into file - Compress File - use file path to automate saving new file into a web publish image directory I tried this for a while in vim script and kinda had it working, but then swapped to neovim and the function just seemed a bit snappier. I also really like the structure in neovim a lot better than regular vim. Then once you add on some of the LUA only plugins, it becomes a no brainer for me. That is not to say there isn't a place for regular VIM, as most people probably don't want to deal with LUA and don't need the extra functionality, but I absolutely love it!

Can you try and do a video on two things in neovim/vim 1. Dealing with jupyter notebooks in python 2. Something equivalent to remote-ssh in vscode, u can get vim in all systems, ssh into them, run vim there, but what about the other way round, have vim in one system, ssh into multiple systems and access their files.

[@Slate245Ivanovo]

The second thing seems to be not that possible (or possible, but kinda backward. Remote ssh works by installing a server into the target environment, then your vscode connects to that server, and after it does its magic, you are using vscode as a client for that server, running in your target environment. Neovim is built to be usable as a server, to which you can send commands from different clients. The cli editor itself is just a client, too. So, in order to connect similarly to a remote machine, you need to install neovim on it. If neovim is already installed, why send commands to it from your neovim instance, when you can simply use it through ssh?

[@dktol56]

Perhaps use sshfs to mount remote directories on the local system and then use local vim to edit files within these directories. This probably doesn't scale well if you are dealing with a lot of remote systems, but at least vim isn't required remotely, just an ssh server.
