vim is not worth it for anyone. It's a meme.

Learn vim and then move to emacs with evil mode.

slow
vim is the best editor all aroudn
Cooper Baker
Just use anything

VSCode being Electron makes it almost Emacsy for frontend or node.js webshitting. Just use the Vim extension and you're done.
Bentley Lopez
why would it not be? it's just a text editor
it's useful for anything relating to editing text, regardless of whatever language you're using
Cooper Lopez
Vscode shortcuts + custom snippets provide the same level of productivity, if not better. Ctrl+p and @ or # make navigation really easy, along with find and replace. I don't see what makes vim useful. It's tedious to config, plugins break constantly.
Joshua Hernandez
vim extension is good enough for 90% of people. If you want to go i3 ricing route and waste hours learning and editing config files go for it but if you actually want to work the extensions will do just as well.
Connor Hernandez
when are you going to actually write some code and stop worrying about the thing you write it in?
Daniel Cook
Vim itself isn't good, it's the vim way of editing that's fast and good, and you can install vim into visual studio if you want.
Ethan Sanders
I tried neovim like 2 weeks ago, haven't used vscode since.
>t. web shitter
Samuel Taylor
Can you elaborate? What do you like in neovim that you couldn't get in vsc?
David Ortiz
it's basically the same if you do some set up but
1. I liked that it is in a terminal because I use git via the terminal.
2. not microsoft
that's basically it.

how long did it take to configure it?
Mason Turner
maybe an hour or so, most time consuming was to find the right stuff I need/want.
Now I just uploaded my config files to github and when I am on another computer I just copy them and am done. easy
Carter Rivera
Isn't there a vim extension for vscode?

VS Code is essentialy another browser running on your PC so it's already the best IDE for web devs.
Anthony Russell
vscode + vim plugin. I've tried several times to setup vim like a modern ide, but its too much of a hassle and I have to do it on a per language basis.
Oliver Sullivan
>so it's already the best IDE for web devs.
bullshit. I know many web shitters, me included, who don't use vscode.
Jose Taylor
frontend webshit is basically the only actual reason to use vschode
