Helix. It’s fairly vimlike, but with sensible defaults and no plugins so I don’t have to waste any time configuring it. It has good lsp and linting support for the languages I use (js & dart). My config is one line, to set the theme to match my terminal.
I love helix but wanted to try ai assisted coding and finally find a way to generate code from a comment, so I've added that to my config
And that also inspired me to create a keybinding to ask chatpgt to explain selected code for me
Hmm… I’m still torn on ai assisted coding. On the one hand, less work is good, on the other hand I trust myself to make my code error free more than I do a glorified chat bot that won’t have to deal with the consequences…
Somehow I’ve become the crotchety person upset about how things are changing, and I’m not even 30 yet…
I was in the same boat, but my curiosity got to me and I finally tried it a bit, and its pretty nice. Ai it definitively not going anywhere so I think we should embrace it.
Of course the code generated needs to be checked and not blindly trusted, but I think its gonna be a part of all our workflows in a year or so
