    Switching back-and-forth a bit between Spacemacs and Neovim, I got inspired by https://github.com/ctjhoa/spacevim and thought to myself "Hey, that's a great idea!", and so I went into my first time actually toying with vim script (love-hate relationship atm). The result of the last couple of days so far is the ground work for a Neovim specific port of Spacemacs, located here https://github.com/Tehnix/spaceneovim. The major difference between that and the existing spacevim is that the layers are separated out from the core, and can be updated via an…

    I switch between a few different “modes” on my Mac every day (work, coding, meetings, personal stuff). Each time I’d end up reopening the same apps and dragging all the windows back into the right Spaces. Super repetitive and honestly kind of annoying. So over the past few weeks I hacked together a small open-source tool called SpacePigeon that basically remembers your whole workspace and puts everything back where it was. Things it can do: Save your current layout (apps + windows + Spaces) Restore it with one click or a hotkey Keep separate presets (like “Work”, “Coding”, “Meetings” etc.)…

    I'm Varun from the Codeium team. After support for VSCode, Jetbrains, Jupyter, and Colab, we are super excited to bring free AI-powered code autocomplete to Vim and Neovim. And in the spirit of Show HN, we have a playground version for anyone to try the tech in the browser without any installation (https://www.codeium.com/playground)! We also made the vim client open source and are open to contributions.

    Vimacs project has just released! One of the most feature-rich neovim configurations out there. Manifest: There are some philosophical differences between (neo)vim & emacs (barely summarizing): (neo)vim is more minimalist and more focused on coding (unix philosophy) emacs is known to be an extensible editor that can ease the process of (almost) any text related task. (IRC, E-Mail, Note taking etc.) With Vimacs you have the efficiency of (neo)vim and (some) features of emacs. - Feature-complete (Some inspired from emacs & JetBrains) - Fast (Lazy loading ~%97.5) - Simple (configuration +…

    While speccing out this spreadsheet tool, I realized that I never had to think about the keybindings. It all just came naturally from Vim. Normal/insert/visual modes, hjkl navigation, dd/yy/p, :w, :q. The usual muscle memory works. It supports CSV/TSV import and export, and a native .cell format that preserves formulas. The formula engine handles SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, MAX, and IF with range references. The codebase is a Cargo workspace: a pure cell-sheet-core library (no TUI dependency) and a cell-sheet-tui crate on top of ratatui. Early days, but it's usable. To…

    Hey HN, we built a pure-Lua Neovim plugin that brings Cursor-style next-edit predictions to Neovim, running entirely on local models. Tab to accept, Esc to reject. GitHub: https://github.com/BlinkResearchLabs/blink-edit.nvim We're Blink Research Labs (https://github.com/BlinkResearchLabs) - an open research collective building AI coding tools in the open. Our philosophy is simple: if it's not open, it's not research; if it's not fast, it's not usable.
