beacon.nvim VS neovide

danilamihailov/beacon.nvim might do something similar to what you described.

I would recommend installing a plugin like beacon.nvim or similar which flashes the new location of the cursor whenever it makes a jump. That way it's easier for someone to follow where your cursor is, which is often a reason for confusion otherwise.

I spent the weekend tinkering with Neovim's virtual text and ended up creating this plugin. It's pretty close to being a clone of beacon.nvim but it's written in Lua. I find cursor highlighting very helpful when working on a large monitor where I inevitably end up with various splits.

Hello, guys. I have been using accelerated-jk and beacon.nvim for a long time. I think they are very useful and excellent. But, there has been no a complete version of lua. And recently I also want to start writing plug-ins, so here are they. I hope they will be useful to you.

I use https://github.com/DanilaMihailov/beacon.nvim and I love it. Would recommend.

I'm not sure if it's even possible to do something like neovide's animation inside the terminal, but I find this plugin really useful to display where the cursor is after you switch windows https://github.com/DanilaMihailov/beacon.nvim

- have a “graphical” user interface: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

The process above works fine, though, depending on your setup and project, you might appreciate the benefits of a lean editor like Neovide. So, let’s see how to configure Neovim to run with Unreal Engine.

EDIT: I found this just now -> https://github.com/neovide/neovide/issues/1902 and disabling relative line numbers does indeed make the problem more or less disappear.

Not Emacs, but perhaps https://github.com/neovide/neovide will be of interest to you.

im certainly not a programmer , but NVIM with SOME gui like neovide it looks amazing and great,

Yes it is neovide: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

iTerm2, since Terminal.app doesn't support 24-bit colors and I used Neovim for some time. I now use Neovide for Neovim, so all I use iTerm2 for now is the UI (I have a theme I like, plus dark mode actually works).

I feel this smooth cursor should be everywhere by default, as it gives so much better user experience. I have also been looking for a solution for neovim as well, but based on what I know, only Neovide has support for this. And most plugins do smooth scrolling only, rather than smooth cursor.
