I haven't used the Vim extensions specifically, but in the extension "store", you can see number of downloads and an average star rating. Is the "bad" Vim plugin not getting downvoted?

The point isn't that the VSCodeVim extension is bad, it's that it isn't good. Having said that, as a project , I would call it a bad one. Last time I commented on this on HN, I pointed out that the VSCodeVim group's extension had three times the number of downloads as the one called amVim. And of course it would. I speculated last time, just like I'm doing here, that this has more to do with the names chosen for the…

Agreed, it would be nice if the eslint module swallowed javascript linting errors for you... Also, would be cool if it defaulted to using an in-module copy of eslint with the airbnb preset as it's default if no eslint config file is found in the project/workbench.

IMO the Airbnb preset is too extreme / opinionated to use as a default ESLint config. Maybe something a bit more trimmed down would be reasonable.

I had one of those aha moments last week. I started to write to complain to Microsoft that VSCode didn't remember my previous searches when I remembered that I could just hack it in myself, which I did. Most programmers like me like that kind of control.

Honest question as I'm not really part of the open source world: 1. What happens to your change when an update comes out? (Or, do you keep up with updates) 2. Having just merged my first ever pull request, how does a project stay coherent with possibly hundreds or thousands of people submitting their 'hacks'?

I really liked Visual Studio Code, but I couldn't really use it without a Vim plugin. So over the last few months I've been working on this one: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vscodevi... I think it's gotten a lot better, and if lack of vim keybindings was something that was holding you back from trying VSC, I highly encourage you to try it again!

Thanks from a user ;) I cannot use any editor without vim keybindings, furthermore I love "relativenumber", however VSCode gives no API for relative numbers (there is some hacky gutter images extension, but it is really hacky, slow and bad looking). I've made a fork with relative numbers built-in https://github.com/alfanick/vscode . Not going to do pull request, at least not yet - unit testing and i18n required. BTW…

The beauty of ESLint is that you can override it with your own settings. So you can use the AirBnB setting as the base and override the things that you want.
