cava VS neovim

pywal is used to get the colorscheme from my wallpaper for my browser and terminal. left: neovim, top right: qutebrowser, bottom right: cava

So, I use stuff like cava (audio visualizer) and btop in my Alacritty Terminal (BSPWM to run cava, i had to use terminal right and cava launches in terminal, I wanted to know whether i could run my cava or btop or any other terminal application transparent without making my whole terminal transparent.

It's acctually really simple and really useful, I usually use it to ssh tunnel to my main pc and start a VNC server to control from anywhere. You can also code in basically any programming language like you would do on a linux machine. You can use CLI tools to, for example, download yt music and play it, you can even use cava in it. You can play with netcat, use those stupid terminal programs to run tetris with sed on the terminal or more, run a server on your phone or even run lightweight desktop environment locally to run even GIMP or firefox (though it's very resource consuming and even newer phones can't handle it properly). Theres even proot-distro which allowes you to contain a basic linux distro on your phone and launch an instance of it (gui included if you want).

3) In progress: a Philco free-standing radio housing from the 40s. I'm using one of Parts Express' boombox kits for the audio, and a Pi (with a long, narrow TFT) running https://github.com/karlstav/cava where the radio frequency display used to be. This also would be a nice candidate for a solution like the one you shared.

The widget needs cava to run. Currently you can customise the size of the widget, number of bars, colour and spacing between bars. You can also stop and start the widget (via stop(), start() and toggle() commands) so the script isn't running all the time.

As a software engineer, choosing and understanding your text editor is important part of your work, as it impacts your productivity and workflow efficiency. It's like choosing the perfect tool for any trade - you need to know what tool to use and how to use it effectively if you want to excel. For me, I use Neovim as my editor and I have been using it for a little over a year now.

This got me thinking about my recent pivot, my switch to Neovim by way of LazyVim to write most of my code, and using tmux to keep terminal states alive after closing a session.

Neovim: Make sure you have Neovim installed on your system. You can check the official website for installation instructions: https://neovim.io/ Git: We'll be using Git to clone the LazyVim starter pack. If you don't have Git, you can download it from https://git-scm.com/downloads

There are several ways to install Neovim. This wiki provides several guidelines on how to install Neovim.

All these thoughts I've shared, I would have them on occasion - but ever since I switched to Linux and Neovim, my curiosity has been through the roof. Switching over to Neovim and Linux was a not so fun weekend of configuration and spending half a day getting my work's local dev environment running on my new OS (which no one has tested development on). But I now have a deeper understanding of the tools I use, and have a text editor configured to be the most optimal for the way I want to use it.
