I've been using VS Codium for a while, but lately decided to give Neovim a shot. Describe your setup/experience.

vi user for 33 years and I tried vi + bacon but ended up switching to vscode:-( but with vi keybindings haha

How about neovim?
Still the good old experience with all the modern functionality.

I use VSCode with Vim keybindings. Mostly because it works without any problems, and I really like the inline-typing of the Rust Analyzer plugin.

I also use NeoVim on the side, but I am still faster in VSCode when I need to quickly jump between several files (at least until the day my vim-fu will improve).

Helix with Rust Analyzer. Works like a charm. Pretty much the only thing I miss from VS Code is the ability to run unit tests through a debugger.

Same. Helix and RA.

I am also using Helix! Using Rust Analyzer as well. I love how simple it is.

How customizable is Helix? Is there a plugin system like with Neovim/Vim?

[–] UnshavedYak@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Not, at the moment. Configuration is pretty good, it has really good defaults (LSP/RA integration/etc), but Plugins are still being designed.

Emacs with lsp-mode and rust-analyzer.

Just regular VS Code. I didn't know about Codium! I think I'll switch over. I guess I can't add anything different but hope someone else shares their experience :)!
