vcsh VS SpaceVim

I'm pretty happy with vcsh. I've used a lot of options over the years, and this is the only one I've never been motivated to replace.

weirdly, nobody mentioned vcsh[1] yet. it's a git-based tool that gives all git goodies. I use it and a couple of bash micro scripts to pull/push the latest changes upon logging in/out into shell (again bash, but seeking for POSIX or fish-based version)

I feel obligated to point out vcsh [1], which is likely already packaged for your operating system.

The main selling point is that you can set up various git repos for different things. I have one for SSH keys (and no, that does not get pushed anywhere except to my own private server), VIM, neovim, bash, and 'other' (for misc config files like .dir_colors, .gitconfig, etc.).

I'm using vcsh which is basically a small wrapper around git. The resulting repository is this in my case.

It’s over-engineered, but I’ve been using https://github.com/RichiH/vcsh for this for years.

SpaceVim

On the vim side, you can try https://spacevim.org.

https://github.com/SpaceVim/SpaceVim There isn't much difference between a text editor and an IDE, so not sure if this is what you were looking for.

Hi, I'm new to using vim I followed the instruction from spacevim.org but this won't work..

You can find distributions with plugins for those editors, like Doom Emacs or space vim. These days, I enjoy doing (neo)vim configs (with lua). Both can use the language server protocol (with different plugins or natively in neovims' case) and so you'd get similar setups done like in code.

I'm considering picking up a pre-made configuration project as my Neovim daily driver, but boy, there sure are a lot of them. SpaceVim, CosmicNvim, AstroNvim, LunarVim, NvChad, and many more I'm sure.

Spacevim

The only Vim distro I'm aware of is SpaceVim (https://spacevim.org/). I just tested it for a short time but it couldn't compete with my hand crafted settings ;-) But I'm using some of the plugins of SpaceVim in my setup, eg. vim-which-key and vista.vim.
