  • nyoom.nvim

    Discontinued A Neovim framework and doom emacs alternative for the stubborn martian hacker. Powered by fennel and the oxocarbon theme

    • If you wanna come back to the paths of the lord, you could give a try to Nyoom.nvim, it's an nvim config very similar to Doom Emacs written in the lisp Fennel which then compiles to Lua. VimL sucks

  • dotfiles

    My dotfiles managed via yadm (by rochakgupta)

    • Yup. Here you go: https://github.com/rochakgupta/dotfiles. Check out the .vimrc and .vim directory.

  • helix

    A post-modern modal text editor.

    • I recently switched to Helix from Neovim, after having switched from Vim shortly before that. I wasn't improficient at (n)vim exactly, but I found it to be more hassle than it's worth. Not so much the modal nature of the editor (Helix is modal as well), but rather the extensive set-up process for features that I consider pretty necessary for my own day-to-day use.
