    :rocket: Run Async Shell Commands in Vim 8.0 / NeoVim and Output to the Quickfix Window !!

  • Recently I'm using asyncrun.vim:

  • vim-dispatch

    dispatch.vim: Asynchronous build and test dispatcher

  • vim-dispatch added jobs support two years ago. It's a lot more than a backend for running async commands -- it has a whole "find the right command to run" system.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • AsyncCommand

    AsyncCommand allows you to execute shell commands without waiting for them to complete. When the application terminates, its output can be loaded into a vim buffer.

  • I've been using asyncrun as a replacement backend for my own AsyncCommand to avoid learning new commands.
