Vim VS NvChad

I find the Vim extension for VS Code has macro support that is good enough for most of my use cases (if you’re a fan of Vim key bindings - obviously).

https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim/blob/master/ROADMAP.md#repe...

that's why I just use https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim if I have to use VSCode

They have discussions enabled on the GitHub repository; eventually r/vscode might be of help.

What you would learn from using a neovim addon for VS Code covers most of the first point and some of the second - VSCode Vim lets you run neovim in a headless mode that relays keypresses to it, and emulates several popular addons. It also comes without quite as much hassle as comes from the second step of learning to configure vim/neovim yourself. Most VSCode extensions work pretty well out of the box, maybe requiring you to add the path to a compiler/interpreter that is not on your PATH.

The extension does have visualedit. You can check the list of supported features here: https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim/blob/HEAD/ROADMAP.md

I though VSCode's vim emulation had issues with code folding

Either I go with K552 or save for RK84 if not CB-GK-16 and both of these are pretty good choice that's certain, or I go with 617 Fizz and use VIM keybinding which Isn't an issue for me cause I've been using NeoVim for more than 1 year, you can grab my dotfiles if you want. Most people won't go with 60% cause they are used to arrow, home, end ... keys so am I with vs code but today I found out about vscodevim extension which enables vim keybinding , these keybindings pretty easy to use more than arrow, home, end .. keys if yo're a vim user like Shift + $ = end, Shift + 0 = home, in visual mode V to select text etc ...

NvChad

If you use Android device, you can try Termux , and in Termux I recommend NavChad as IDE . You can also find a lot of other useful packages .

git clone https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad $HOME\AppData\Local\nvim --depth 1 && nvim # if the above path doesnt work, try any of these paths : %LOCALAPPDATA%\nvim %USERPROFILE%AppDataLocal\nvim C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataLocal\nvim

line 1: you would have to copy it and remove all the nvchad keymaps and additionally reformat your keymaps to adopt this format. for example, if you copied the file in the link to lua/user/mappings.lua I believe you can just replace the first line with:

I'm confused as to why this is happenening as I have been able to load LunarVim and NvChad with any problems whatsoever.

I would suggest to start getting into vim by first trying out popular vim keybinding plugins available on your favorite code editor and get used to those first. Then, if you want to dive deeper into the power of Neovim, try out popular configs like LazyVim, LunarVim, NvChad... Taking Neovim from a mere text editor to a full-featured IDE with features like intellisense, debugging, testing, etc... on your own takes quite a lot of work and configuration.
