    Don't let the cursor slow you down

    We have plans for adding a keyboard interface [0] at least, though it's still an open discussion. If you're after straight Neovim support though, perhaps nvim-treesitter-textobjects [1] might tickle your fancy?

  • glicol

    Graph-oriented live coding language and music/audio DSP library written in Rust

    very cool. Would be interesting to test brain interfaces on this language some day. I am thinking about alternative input method for the language I am developing called Glicol (https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol) quite some time. This work is definitely inspiring.

  • 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.

    Voice command set for Talon, community-supported. (by talonhub)

    The whole ecosystem around Talon is fantastic. You'll probably want to start with [0] if it's your first time, it's a community-maintained talon config which is a good starting point for customization.

    The speech recognition engine built for it is great and the whole thing is free of charge, though I do recommend donating on Patreon [1].

    Cursorless is a nice rethinking-from-the-ground kind of project. However, you can just as well keep using your current tools.

    I've used Talon on and off with Jetbrains IDEs when I had some wrist pain and the overall experience was great, with my coding speed being fast enough without much practice. When voice typing, autocomplete is also very useful, so the introduction of Copilot was an additional huge improvemet.

    But overall, the design of Talon, its config files, and the way this leads to very easy customizability, is really great. A bit like making your whole OS easily automatable and programmable (even if your OS isn't emacs /s).

  • serenade

    Are people still maintaining Serenade? It looks like since they open sourced, it's mostly just been one person committing to it: https://github.com/serenadeai/serenade/commits/master
