Show HN: Vim-like text editor in go. (LSP, TreeSitter, Themes)
By
andrew_bbb
Hey! Check out my "toy" text editor which I use as my daily driver.
Features LSP autocomplete, goto definition, hover info
Tree-sitter support
Color themes (borrowed from the Helix text editor)
Lots of bugs
Macro support
Something like Emacs org-mode: Open test.txt, place the cursor at line 15, and press "Ctrl-C Ctrl-C".
This project was written as a "speed run" — not for speed in terms of time, but rather as an exercise to explore the text editor problem space without overthinking or planning ahead. It’s a quick and "dirty" implementation, so to speak.
