  • vim9script should still be a fair bit slower in certain benchmarks compared to luajit and a fair bit faster in others (https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/master/README_VIM9.md), but better performance is about all it offers.

  • lsp-zero.nvim

    A starting point to setup some lsp related features in neovim.

  • It's still in a young state, TBH, but it has gotten better in recent versions, and the plugin ecosystem has a lot more to offer now than it did when 0.5 and 0.6 were released (for example, this plugin would have made LSP setup way easier to get into in the beginning).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
