vim-endwise VS neovim

tpope/vim-endwise - Closes blocks like do-end etc.

Might be conflicting with coc, check this https://github.com/tpope/vim-endwise/issues/125

As you can see, I've commented it out. That is because as great as it is, it comes at an expense. First, it was often auto-completing words unexpectedly when what I was trying to do was create a new line. For instance, in Ruby files, I'd type do for a block and then hit enter to go the first line of the block's body. Instead, it would auto-complete do to does. Second, this overriding of the enter key was clashing with vim-endwise which I depend on for Ruby development.

Note, Tim Pope's endwise is also broken with Treesitter for similar reasons as noted here

What I really want is a nvim-ts-closeblock plugin that replicates Tim Pope's endwise plugin for Ruby when Treesitter is in effect.

I wish there were lua based version of https://github.com/tpope/vim-endwise.The plugin itself works great but if we add some kind of completion plugin, then things get dirty.There is a lot of issues like...

https://github.com/tpope/vim-endwise is a good plugin since it knows how to do this properly for several languages.

As a software engineer, choosing and understanding your text editor is important part of your work, as it impacts your productivity and workflow efficiency. It's like choosing the perfect tool for any trade - you need to know what tool to use and how to use it effectively if you want to excel. For me, I use Neovim as my editor and I have been using it for a little over a year now.

This got me thinking about my recent pivot, my switch to Neovim by way of LazyVim to write most of my code, and using tmux to keep terminal states alive after closing a session.

Neovim: Make sure you have Neovim installed on your system. You can check the official website for installation instructions: https://neovim.io/ Git: We'll be using Git to clone the LazyVim starter pack. If you don't have Git, you can download it from https://git-scm.com/downloads

There are several ways to install Neovim. This wiki provides several guidelines on how to install Neovim.

All these thoughts I've shared, I would have them on occasion - but ever since I switched to Linux and Neovim, my curiosity has been through the roof. Switching over to Neovim and Linux was a not so fun weekend of configuration and spending half a day getting my work's local dev environment running on my new OS (which no one has tested development on). But I now have a deeper understanding of the tools I use, and have a text editor configured to be the most optimal for the way I want to use it.
