Just Simply – Stop saying how simple things are in our docs
> Write in US English with US grammar. (Tested in British.yml.)
heh, that was funny but it turns out the file is a list of British words checked using Vale, which I just learned existed: https://github.com/errata-ai/vale#readme (MIT)
Also, another TIL is that the "e" version of gray is British https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/doc/.vale... I had previously erroneously assumed they were just one of those quirks of English (which, I guess is still true but it is less random than I thought)

6 ways we improved our documentation in 2022
Similar to how a software has integration or unit tests that are built to make sure changes in the software don’t break the entire system, we implemented tests for our documentation’s style guide using Vale and ESLint.

nvim-tundra v0.2.0 - A punchy, dark theme for Neovim!
Hi r/Neovim! Today I released v0.2.0 for the [Tundra](https://github.com/sam4llis/nvim-tundra) theme so thought I’d post it here in case anybody is interested. ## Highlights: - Added `dim_inactive_windows` table in the Tundra `setup` function - when enabled, non-current windows will inherit the background colour `dim_inactive_windows.color`. - Added `:Tundra` command line sugar. This allows users to change configuration settings in real-time instead of having to reload their configuration. - `:Tundra toggle_transparency` - toggles `transparent_background` flag. - `:Tundra toggle_dim` - toggles `dim_inactive_windows.enabled` flag. - [nvim-treesitter](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter) integration now requires Neovim 0.8. Obsolete `TS*` highlight groups were removed from nvim-treesitter and Tundra will no longer support older highlight groups. To use the obsolete highlight groups, downgrade to Tundra v0.1.0. See [this](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/pull/3656) for more information. - Support for common terminals and software including Alacritty, fzf, iTerm-2, WezTerm, and Windows Terminal. - Improvement of Tundra documentation. - Rewritten using [Vale](https://vale.sh) to keep a consistent style guide. You can find more information about the Tundra theme over at its [GitHub repository](https://github.com/sam4llis/nvim-tundra). Thanks for reading!
