https://this-week-in-neovim.org/ is a convenient way to keep up with Neovim packages and updates. There is also an RSS feed.

@jr0cket have you ditched emacs?

I think he manages two configs at the same time

I am afraid they'll have to prize Emacs from my cold dead hands laughsob and yes I have a book and config for Spacemacs and Doom Emacs But that doesn't mean I can't have fun with Neovim too and working on my third config, this time starting at Neovim 9 and Lazy package manager. I have occasionally used VSpaceCode (Vs code & Calva but with nice vim key bindings) and not surprisingly there is a (very small) book for that and I did create the Clojure config for that project)

Ah. So you like making new configs. I read through your spacemacs book back in the day to get into eMacs

I like writing what I am learning... and I have workflows that sometimes fit Emacs (in general when working with multiple projects) and sometimes fit Neovim better (working on a single project). I didnt find Doom Emacs fitted my workflow, although I did learn some more vim-style editing when using it for a few months at the start of the year. There are some really nice text UI features from various Neovim that I havent seen in Emacs. I have also found using Neovim trouble free (except initially not knowing how to use Neovim and what packages were available and of interest and how best to configure them).

Yeah absolutely. Trying a bunch of stuff let’s you figure out what you’re missing and ideally you can bring it in to your env. Which key is big in vim now but I discovered it because of spacemacs and now almost everything I do is bound behind leader where any editor with good functionailoty I can bind behind leader plus vim emulation for editing would fill the need for me. I just happen to have switched back to vin because latency was an issue for me in emacs
