oni2 VS vscodium

It was onivim2. Iirc it was a one-man show, and stopped when funding dried up. I also hoped to see a a lot from it. Maybe the dev took too much work on his plate, with an unproven language with limited libraries?

It's unfortunate that oni2 stopped development.

It had the promise of all the benefits of VS Code, but performance of a native app.

Yeah, https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues/3811

Onivim development has stopped, it is now abandonware: https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues/3811#issuecomment-9103...

It's MIT licensed now, so anyone could pick it up and continue work on it, but the original authors have basically stopped working on it. This GitHub issue was the last major news update.

I never tried CoffeeScript since nobody pays me for it, though I am curious about ReasonML as an alternative, there's a Neovim front-end[0] coded in Reason that compiles natively[1], and supports existing VS Code plugins from the VSCodium plugin repository[2] which I still have yet to look at how the heck they pulled that bit off, but it is pretty interesting.

Well, my Ubuntu with https://vscodium.com/ is certainly much better for web development than fucking windows. I boot windows only for gaming. I detest their spyware adware OS. Furthermore, I detest "99% open source with 1% bullshit on top of it" products like Chrome and VScode. I will never use the official versions of such programs. I use Brave to use Blink/Chromium, it also has the benefit of not suffering from the v3 manifest bullshit they pulled to attack and weaken Adblockers.

WSL is cool and all, but why deal with all the quirks and issue that come with it, why lorn how it works and all the limitations ... when you can just have it all natively the way it was invented and supposed to work?

I wonder if [VSCodium](https://vscodium.com/) suffers from same issues

Seems like you still lose the Python plugin and remote extensions? Missing the wsl one is pretty rough. If you’re comfortable with vim (or want to be) I can’t recommend neovim enough.

Use Codium. https://vscodium.com/

Anything Microsoft-branded will shoot you in the face sooner or later.

No matter what project you're developing on, at some point you'll give VSCode (or its open source version) a try. You can use it to develop in a dedicated dev-environment or debug integration scenarios.

Hello, and welcome to vscodium:

So Raylib library could be your best option. Let's code, just open your text editor like vim or VSCodium in your Windows, Linux or Mac computer and let's build our indie game with Raylib library, no extra dependencies are needed.

From my own experience Debian Bookworm with XFCE + VScodium is a winner on the X220.

To be fair, there is vscodium[1] which is only a few letters off vscode:
