nvim-treesitter-textsubjects VS vim-indent-object

Neovim supports treesitter based selections and "jumps", which I think are awesome

Or

https://github.com/RRethy/nvim-treesitter-textsubjects

Helix also supports them by default

nvim-treesitter-textsubjects

You could look into treesitter-textobjects and treesitter-textsubjects: they define "smarter" blocks and function boundaries that work relatively well with python and non-parentheses code.

I haven't got treesitter's own incremental selection working, but this plugin has given me basically the functionality I was after https://github.com/RRethy/nvim-treesitter-textsubjects

I personally use it for an outline window for my code (aerial.nvim) and quick-selecting code blocks (nvim-treesitter-textsubjects). I've also seen but not used syntax-tree-surfer for code navigation/manipulation and refactoring.nvim for performing refactoring operations. You could also check out awesome-neovim and ctrl-f for "treesitter", though there are many other plugins out there either not on that list or that don't explicitly mention treesitter in their description.

nvim-treesitter-textsubjects while I basically love everything about Treesitter support, this plugin is just super handy when you start to think more than a second how to select the piece of code you like (in fact nothing when it is nothing too trivial from your muscle-mind)

I tried https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object and while it was somewhat promising, it doesn't work correctly.

If your function is nicely indented (like your example), you can use an indent object daI delete it. Indent objects are provided by vim-indent-object (more well-known but inactive) and vindent.vim (an extended version by me).

vindent.vim is an alternative to both vim-indentwise and vim-indent-object. The latest version v3.0.0 reimplements every functionality that the two plugin offer, but improved!

I use indent objects from vim-indent-object and indent jumps vim-indentwise alot, but they seem to be dormant for a long time. Also, vim-indentwise provides a lot of unnecessary functionalities IMO, making modifying the source code a bit difficult.

This isn't exactly what you're looking for, but assuming you've indented everything between do and end, you can use the vim indent object plugin (https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object), then do something like yii, or dii to do it inside the indent.

I just saw a nice post in /u/medwatt about using vim for VHDL/Verilog and thought I'd contribute a little! * Syntax and error highlight: https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim * Column align: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-easy-align * Remove annoying whitespaces: https://github.com/ntpeters/vim-better-whitespace * Partial (fuzzy) filename search: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim * Outline all declarations inside a file: ⠀https://github.com/preservim/tagbar * Treat indentations as vim-objects (useful for languages that don't use { }): https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object There is also mouse support in vim for those who want it. Try typing :set mouse=a. Very useful for resizing windows. I also highly recommend you get good at using folds (https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Folding). It makes it a LOT easier to navigate files. You can save your fold config per-file with :mkview and load it later with :loadview. If I come up with more hints - I'll mention them in the comments!

Some of the forks https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object/network seem to be quite ahead, you can probably choose and pick a lot of improvements to your fork, then you take over the world!
