  • Surfingkeys

    Map your keys for web surfing, expand your browser with javascript and keyboard.

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Surfingkeys https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys. I switched over from Vimium a couple years ago. I think its more performant than Vimium and also allows you quite a bit more flexibility in your configuration.

    I prefer and recommend browser add-ons over Nyxt. You'll get more compatibility by being able to use Chrome/Firefox. You'll also have a much higher chance of being able to use the same environment at work - since you can typically still install browser add-ons in developer mode even if you aren't able to get rights to install apps.

  • template

    AstroNvim template (v4+) (by AstroNvim)

    Find a good pre-pack that can help, is my recommendation.

    I went from pretty vanilla neovim to using AstroVim, & it's been pretty lovely. It uses the very widely used lazy.nvim for plugin loading, which is quite standard. It has a pretty nice visual leader-key menu that helps explore &show off what is setup; great for discovery. https://astronvim.com/

    As well as being a good base, AstroVim also has an excellent "community pack" setup, which is a collection of many many many mostly drop in init files that setup a couple plugins in a nice way. If trying to get LSP working or better, or looking for better treesitter nav options, the community packs are great drop ones or references to get started, show what's out there. It's a huge part of what makes AdtroVim community so good. https://github.com/AstroNvim/astrocommunity

  • astrocommunity

    A community repository of common plugin specifications

  • webmacs

    webmacs - keyboard driven (emacs key bindings) browser, https://webmacs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

  • qutebrowser

    A keyboard-driven, vim-like browser based on Python and Qt.

  • wasavi

    wasavi is an extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Opera. wasavi changes a textarea element to virtual vi editor which supports almost all the vi/ex commands.

    https://github.com/akahuku/wasavi

    qutebrowser (and some others) also allow spawning vim from inside a text area, and reading the result back when the file is saved. I know Tridactyl can do it via its native messaging integration, but I suppose Vimium doesn't offer that.

  • tridactyl_emacs_config

    Emacs bindings for Tridactyl

    there's a somewhat popular repo for Tridactyl Emacs bindings here https://github.com/jumper047/tridactyl_emacs_config

  • SecLists

    SecLists is the security tester's companion. It's a collection of multiple types of lists used during security assessments, collected in one place. List types include usernames, passwords, URLs, sensitive data patterns, fuzzing payloads, web shells, and many more.

    Thanks for this, just the sort of primer I was looking for.

    (I was wondering why the name seemed familiar, then realized... they also are the person who put together a bunch of password lists[1] that are incredibly useful.)
