It would be really handy to be able to jump into a remote machine and work on code that way without much lag or the need for heavy GUI stacks <3
I feel like a curmudgeon when say this but tools that make me leave my terminal ultimately never sit well. It always feels so limiting when you hit the point where you’re digging through the guts of some framework that basically a web app packaged as a desktop app. I see why people use it and maybe it not even a web app but I’m old enough to know vim gets me everything I need and using some ide desktop app is going t…
Basically just VS Code but in a terminal window. Really wish something like that existed (or maybe it does but I don't know about it).
I'm an advanced Vim user. I compile Onivim from source every couple of months to see what progress is like. My biggest problem with Onivim is that some of the design decisions reek of a design/development team that doesn't really grok Vim. Even if it was feature complete, it would be a slower Vim with a flashier UI and inconsistencies between the Onivim UX and Vim UX. As a specific example, the way Onivim uses tabs/s…
This is based on me personally. I use the vim plugin in VS Code. I wish it was closer to real Vim keybindings, search etc but I want to keep the overall handling of tabs and files.
So Onivim is very interesting to me, I have purchased it, because it looks like it will give me the combination of speed, plugins and conventional editing experience that I'm looking for.
I'd really love a proper IDE that works inside a terminal, I suppose this won't either? What I'm looking for is something like VS Code but that does its window drawing using curses. Not something as barebones as vim or emacs. VS Code for terminal would really describe it well. It would be really handy to be able to jump into a remote machine and work on code that way without much lag or the need for heavy GUI stacks…
CoC basically takes VSCode addons and modifies them just enough to get them working in conjunction with neovim.

Looks really nice, and it's cool to see something like this implemented in reason (OCaml really), but I don't see $35 worth of value compared to VSCode or MacVIM.
If you're going to stare at your editor much of every workday, does the price really matter that much? Even if it only makes you a bit happier than alternatives do, the price difference per hour used will be tiny. I'd wager most software developers can shell out $35 on a whim.
Look at what something like Visual Studio or IntelliJ cost for a commercial license :D This is nothing.
Still early days - and a lot of work - to realize our vision for this project :) But I'll be around to answer questions.

There are Vim plugins that enable you to do just that. I do have a few which allows me to run a terminal command, navigate directories, manage git repo...etc all without leaving Vim
Do you have any guide to get started?

neovim and coc.nvim might be close to what you're looking for, if you can live with vim style motions, etc. CoC basically takes VSCode addons and modifies them just enough to get them working in conjunction with neovim.
Just to give some background: I'm not someone that spends hours in an IDE every day. I'd just like something to easily install and that I can just jump into, and that makes less frequently used features easy to find with a menu or something.
Basically VS Code but then ideally in a terminal so that I can run it inside tmux, and so it will work fine over a slower connection.
VS Code, while suboptimal IMO with its Electron implementation, does show the way for an accessible IDE with great support for plugins. Even someone who doesn't use it daily can figure it out. But it's GUI only :(
The licensing is a bit complicated. It is not really open source, until later, when it is: "∙ Free for non-commercial and educational use." "∙ Commercial use requires the purchase of a license." and then "Because of the support we've received from open source communities, we've decided to dual-license the code after 18 months - every commit, starting with 017c513, will be dual-licensed via the MIT License 18 months f…
We wanted a model where, unlike completely proprietary licenses, the source code could be available - and, worst case, if something happened to the project - users could still have full access to it. And that all the work is eventually available in general.
Our first OSS drops - from 18 months ago - are coming in next month (July 2nd), so that'll be exciting. It will be interesting to see how it works out.
