context.vim
- What's this type of plugin called? (it shows the structure of code)

I have reached Vim nirvana
There are a couple of plugins that do this.
For vim: https://github.com/wellle/context.vim
For neovim (much higher performance in my experience): https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context
I believe there's now also a VS code plugin for the same behavior, but I don't know what it's called.
-
Plugin to show current function?
I think that something like this https://github.com/wellle/context.vim is what you are looking for
-
Scrolloff & start/end of file
https://github.com/wellle/context.vim does something very similar to what you are asking for. You can probably tweak it according to your needs.

Equivalent of context.vim plugin for vscode
I've recently started using vscode after using vim for many years, and one thing that I miss is the context.vim plugin which shows the function signature at the top of the screen when you scroll.
- Would love to see this 'sticky function header" as an extension in VScode
-
Is there a plugin that does something similar to this new feature in xcode ?
context.vim for those not using treesitter
- Get a symbol's context
- Any plugin to always see current function signature?
-
Package like context.vim
I ran across context.vim https://github.com/wellle/context.vim, which is basically a sticky header, where your cursor is.

Multi-cursor code editing: An animated introduction
Nice post. Obligatory Helix plug: For anyone interested in taking this further, there are whole editors designed around multi-cursor editing.

:syntax off (2016)
I could never turn it off completely but I do sometimes use the Acme theme during the day (it's too bright in the evening), which highlights just comments, strings, and errors.

Lapce
You can use a snippet LSP to work around Helix not having a built-in LSP manager. They're listed in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/395

Memray – A Memory Profiler for Python
I'm probably not the average python programmer.
But I normally just create two terminals (I have a tiling window manager) and in one I open a python file under /tmp/ write my code and execute it in the other terminal.
I would probably use a REPL if it was integrated in my favorite editor ( https://helix-editor.com ).

Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
Wow, that's been there a while: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/commit/35c974c9c49f912...
Wonder how I missed that. I'm getting a re-education in helix today -- thank you! I'll go through `hx --tutor` again before I insert any more feet in my mouth.

Zed is now open source
Interesting to see how they are gonna approach integrating plugins/extensions system, because this is likely gonna be one of the major factors affecting adoption and ecosystem growth.
Helix devs, for instance, lean towards a Scheme-like implementation. [1]
