VimMode.spoon VS shotcaller

VimMode.spoon (open source, free)

I have a Hammerspoon plugin that does a fairly decent job: https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon

A friend of mine I met through my own similar (free) library is developing this like a madman: https://kindavim.app

It costs $3/month (coffee) but for a Vim person like me I gladly pay. Making this work across macOS is a total mess and a full-time job, and it's not trivial work.

If you want a free version, I have https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon as a Hammerspoon plugin that works pretty OK, but I'm not actively developing it and prefer the kindaVim app at this point.

there's some free solutions out there like Karabiner-Elements(https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org) (but doesn't manipulate/calculate text, just key mapping) and VimMode.spoon (https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon). if you don't wanna bother with setting those up there's also one-time payment stuff, that are basically wrappers around Karabiner Elements.

I wrote this to handle a 2 letter key sequence being pressed (to support jk entering vim mode): https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon/blob/master/lib/key_sequence.lua

Love to see this windows project! If anyone wants some MacOS Vim functionality everywhere, I have a small library I maintain for that: https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon

Better solution: https://github.com/cknadler/vim-anywhere, for neovim users (and probably vim users) you can utilize some apple script as well: https://blog.schembri.me/post/neovim-everywhere-on-macos/. For those of you who want to try org-mode and evil, https://github.com/tecosaur/emacs-everywhere is awesome. And if you don't want to use an editor, a similar project (using Hammerspoon) is available here: https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon

and also let's not forget the awesome VimMode.spoon from dbalatero: https://github.com/dbalatero/VimMode.spoon

As for a project using these, see: https://github.com/amethyst/shotcaller and https://github.com/jojolepro/minigene :)

We do indeed intend to be on the lookout for such opportunities for standardization. Our main R&D project in this regard is Shotcaller, which is made with bracket-lib by people who have previously worked with Amethyst Engine.

I’m building a minimalistic, 1v1 MOBA game (Dota/LoL) that’s all about grand strategy at the macro level, like chess. It is designed from scratch to accommodate AI development.

OpenAI gave up after beating 99% of players in a limited version of DOTA2. They essentially just figured out how to out-micro human players. We want to let players play alongside AI assistance, like a racing car driver backed up by their team of mechanics and engineers.

I’m working on one such modern RTS game: https://github.com/amethyst/shotcaller

It’s a MOBA-style game that is played 1v1, with the 5 “players” on each side controlled by autonomous bots. This design accommodates AI development as part of the sport, much like a F1 driver and their team of engineers and mechanics.

The game is written in Rust and will use WASM for scripting to accommodate a wide range of languages for both game modding and AI code. While it’s only 1v1 in its initial iteration, I agree that there’s immense value in cooperative and more micro-level play, so we do intend to incrementally move towards that as an alternative game mode.

I’d love to chat more with anyone interested in this particular design or RTS/MOBAs in general. You can find my email on my GitHub.
