      If terminal is the only thing, he can simply do horizontal split and enter the terminal mode there.
      I only configured two keybindings: one to enter terminal mode, another one is i map Esc key in t mode (terminal mode) to exit terminal mode without closing the terminal.
      It is pretty sweet to because you can navigate the terminal using nvim keybindings (hjkl), yank parts of the terminal including outputs, commands, your machine name, basically every text that you can see in the terminal.

    This video is a great reminder that not all people are easy to teach. This guy has 10 years of experience with vim and he is still stumbling around on Neovim worse than I did when I started learning it. That's fine but he is completely taking for granted how digestible Prime is making neovim feel like. Neovim is hard to jump into and Prime made me feel like I was more than capable of learning it because I am nowhere as scattered as this guy is and if he can do it, I certainly can. Thank you Prime, more content like this would be appreciate it. If you need another noob to teach Neovim to, I can be that guy :P

    Many people don't know the fact that windows terminal has tmux like features. u can split panes vertically, horizontally and can also resize em and close. Check the commands on the command pallette of WT. alt+shift+ is vertical split and alt+shift+ - is horizontal split. Hold alt and arrow keys to change panes. Ctrl+shift+w to close

    • @fourcoding3198
      @fourcoding3198 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      That's true and you can also change the keybindings. However, as far as I know (as a tmux-beginner), tmux has many more features than just splitting, e.g. multiple sessions with the possibility of detaching, renaming of windows, better navigation between panes/windows, tmux-internal copy buffer. In addition to all that you can further extend tmux with plugins and themes.

    one of the things surprised me is that neovim is actually fully cross platform with windows. So if he uses windows, he can use Nvy as a neovim gui renderer with neovim. And use neovim as if he were in a unix system. Except of course the command line will be powershell. But everything so far works great in my case. Lsp, telescope, completions, etc. Moreover, the configurations are identical if you use a linux system, so it's completely portable too.
    I use Linux on my work pc, but sometimes I develop a little bit on my personal pc, which have windows installed on it. So in my case this saves me a huge deal of going through wsl and stuff.

  • @Jonathan-di1pb
    @Jonathan-di1pb 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The thing people tend to mis I feel is that Neovim is a process. You don't go to the intimidating endgame right away. You use a base config until you notice small annoyences, try to fix em and get increasingly good at it and make increasingly bigger changes until you have your dream editor. You'll probably be slower than vscode in the beginning, but its just an investment.

    • @rezhaadriantanuharja3389
      @rezhaadriantanuharja3389 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Another thing is most people tend to clone someone's config and hoping to customize it from there. In my experience this is a horrible idea, because there will be a tons of custom keymaps, plugins, settings that you are not aware of and therefore, you will be lost.
      I always suggest to have those people's config as a reference, but try to configure nvim yourself. that way you will know what is the available options, keymaps, plugins, how to do fixing if something breaks.

I'm in between using chocolatey as a native package manager for windows while i code or just using WSL (wsl uses a LOT of ram due to virtualization but gives me a proper linux terminal). Also why is it so easy to fall for vim? I've been on windows all my life, I haven't touched DOS since the 90s and my terminal usage is limited yet the simplistic nature of doing all my work on a big blank canvas and zero distractions makes me happy.

      I prefer separate tab. Just shift-arrow to switch between. So :wa shift-right up-enter has become like breathing.

    I tried neovim for my job worflow and at first I couldn't addapt to it, then when I changed my laptop I gave it another chance, and now I am using nvim finally. I also tried the vim plugin for vscode but for me it doesn't worked as expected

    Hardest part about Vim is just forgetting you can do things. Completely forgot you can jump to the next instance of a find with ;

      @bambitsunami4165 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      i read a few others say the same thing. any idea why you forgot about it? are you not using vim often? or do you not search often? im trying to figure out what makes features stick in our memory, vs what makes them easy to forget.

    • @BeOnlyChaos
      @BeOnlyChaos 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@bambitsunami4165 I think it's the usual progression in learning. There are many ways to do things. People get into the habit of doing the easy way, like arrow keys instead of hjkl. In order to get better, you have to actively practice the faster/better way of doing things until it becomes a habit. I don't use find next character often and I haven't read the manual recently enough to remember there's a way to repeat the last find. I guess practicing some vimgolf every week could help.

    I'm surprised Prime didn't know about the "Are you sure you want to paste" at 5:50. This happens because you copied something which has a line ending and by pasting that directly into a terminal makes the shell interpret as you PRESSED enter to run the command right away. So the Windows Terminal here is saving your dumb ass from running something right away without realizing. This can be disabled too if you want.

    Thing is, Vim doesn't advertise its functionalities. If you don't research how to do things the faster way or read documentation, and just use vim motions and a limited set of functionality, then yes, you can be a noob 10 years in
