  • orgmode

    Orgmode clone written in Lua for Neovim 0.9+.

  • __org-mode__ Honestly Org mode is pretty incredible. Beside it being the best tool for task management and time tracking it also enables you to do ["literate programming"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming) with its tangle/detangle features. As a vim user I'm seriously jealous. There are plugins trying to bring org-mode to vim https://github.com/nvim-orgmode/orgmode https://github.com/jceb/vim-orgmode (unmaintained) but they can't compare to the org-mode experience in emacs, as far as I know. Also there is a plugin trying to create an org-mode alternative for neovim https://github.com/nvim-neorg/neorg

  • vim-orgmode

    Text outlining and task management for Vim based on Emacs' Org-Mode

  • which-key.nvim

    💥 Create key bindings that stick. WhichKey is a lua plugin for Neovim 0.5 that displays a popup with possible keybindings of the command you started typing.

  • __usability features__ Emacs has a lot of great ideas for usability, some of which have been copied to vim like which-key https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim https://github.com/liuchengxu/vim-which-key

  • vim-which-key

    :tulip: Vim plugin that shows keybindings in popup

  • __usability features__ Emacs has a lot of great ideas for usability, some of which have been copied to vim like which-key https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim https://github.com/liuchengxu/vim-which-key

  • hydra.nvim

    Create custom submodes and menus

  • or hydra https://github.com/anuvyklack/hydra.nvim

  • evil-collection

    A set of keybindings for evil-mode

  • Evil mode is incredible, but it has real disadvantages in the Emacs context. It is another layer above Emacs, which makes Emacs different from its default self. E.g. most packages don't come with evil-mode key bindings. The popular Emacs packages are handled by https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil-collection but, there is always going to be a layer of translation between how upstream describes its key bindings and how Evil binds them.

  • WorkOS
