SpaceVim VS vimrc

SpaceVim

On the vim side, you can try https://spacevim.org.

https://github.com/SpaceVim/SpaceVim There isn't much difference between a text editor and an IDE, so not sure if this is what you were looking for.

You can find distributions with plugins for those editors, like Doom Emacs or space vim. These days, I enjoy doing (neo)vim configs (with lua). Both can use the language server protocol (with different plugins or natively in neovims' case) and so you'd get similar setups done like in code.

I'm considering picking up a pre-made configuration project as my Neovim daily driver, but boy, there sure are a lot of them. SpaceVim, CosmicNvim, AstroNvim, LunarVim, NvChad, and many more I'm sure.

Spacevim

The only Vim distro I'm aware of is SpaceVim (https://spacevim.org/). I just tested it for a short time but it couldn't compete with my hand crafted settings ;-) But I'm using some of the plugins of SpaceVim in my setup, eg. vim-which-key and vista.vim.

While I don't agree with you, it's still your choice. Still a better choice than using most other editors. Have a look at SpaceVim for a complete suite.

there are several vimrc files: https://github.com/amix/vimrc

Vim with https://github.com/amix/vimrc

If you want my five cents, then I would say that using something like https://github.com/amix/vimrc without fully understanding the consequences, is a bad idea. And instead you should focus on the basics of vim, vimtutor followed by :h user-manual.

Sorry can't have a GIF with a post. So I recently installed jedi-vim and I'm using it along with this vim-rc https://github.com/amix/vimrc. It will autocomplete in strange ways and I will have to do ctrl + L to redraw. Has anyone else experienced this?

Archcraft's vim uses this vimrc which adds a lot of plugins including some for improving appearance, so it's more suited for a terminal emulator than a tty.

Or if you want something very minimal, just for easier editing experience when connected to server, try just a simple preconfigured vimrc file, where you can comment and uncomment stuff that you might need. I use amix as base for my own vimrc file.

Michael: I spent a long time getting my vimrc configured properly and all the right plugins and the language server protocols. And I just tried VS Code, and it just worked. I thought, how many hours could I have saved here? And then things like running projects in Remote Containers that's been a game-changer with a dev container that you can also use with Codespaces. Once I switched over, there was no going back.
