This is where people lose me. neovim has a plugin manager built it, why use mason? why install more and more and more and more software?

AstroNvim sets up all this language support for Rust by just like one line call to their AstroCommunity packs. Because all these things should be done by default.
Hello! I ask from ignorance, sorry if anyone is offended, why would you want to use Neovim instead of an IDE like VS Code? Isn't it more complicated to work from a terminal, while with an IDE everything is faster and simpler?
Depends what you mean by "everything is faster with an IDE", what are we measuring? Time to set up a working configuration? Regardless, my answer to your question is a rather subjective one. Pretty much depends what tool(s) you're most comfortable with. I've been using Vim for aprox 20 years and recently Neovim, I've touched Intellij products, MS Studio, Eclipse, Netbeans ... you get the gist, but I could never settle for any of them. I'm also coming from a sys admin background from back in the days, when I'd had to ssh into a machine and do my work there - V/im was 100% of the times my best friend. Granted, Vim has a steep learning curve, but once it gets into your fingertips there's no way back. The code editing gymnastics that's available in Vim has no match in any of the IDEs. Anyway, my point here is that a comparison between Vim and any IDEs is irelevant. Use whatever option you're most comfortable with.
neovim can use all the features of vscode and has keybinds that are easier to learn. If u have watched theprimagen code on stream, you can see how quickly he can move with a basic neovim setup.
run this in an administrator powershell: rustup component add rust-analyzer Then to test it's working run: rust-analyzer --version should fix issue with rust analyzer not being properly installed by Mason
Looks like you're just one step away from REALLY throwing the mouse away: also throwing MacOS out the window and using Linux with a tiling window manager like a pro.
Worth mentioning is that this setup doesn't seem to work well with the standard MacOS Terminal program, which doesn't support features like true colors. I recommend wezterm, but other modern terminals should work as well.
just a suggestion: suspend the microphone holder so it does not capture the sound of your keystrokes. I mean, keystrokes are fine but instead we hear a muffled sound like constantly hitting the desk with something and is annoying for those of us who use headphones.
I cant wait for Microsoft to provide first party support for Rust in Visual Studio. I have to use Visual Studio Code and I'd love to use MSVS. I dont understand why it isnt implemented like C++ is when MS wants to use Rust more and more but hey....

Hey, i don't know if that's the right place to ask but uh.. when i try to install nvchad on neovim windows it bluescreens (consistently) and when i try doing the same within windows subsystem for linux it just doesn't load nvchad.

Do you know of any solutions?
@@rasibn I installed neovim fine, just that when i do the nvchad install script it doesnt work and bluescreens for some reason, sorry, my bad i unspecified that... (i edited the comment now...)
i don't understand the point : if your are comfortable with vim/neovim keyboards so 3/4 of the features seem irrelevent to me the last recommandation 🤮 : LLM for programming (and most of the time) is garbage
A bEaUtIfUl, ViSuAl DeBuGgEr! Neovim is my favorite editor, but the dap-ui plugin is far from my favorite interface. It's just the best available so far.
To enable VS Code-like inlay hints with " + i", add the follwing to the main init.lua file- vim.keymap.set("n", 'i', function() vim.lsp.inlay_hint.enable(not vim.lsp.inlay_hint.is_enabled({0}),{0}) end)
reason why you shouldn't use lazyvim, nvchad, lunarvim, etc. is the same as why you shouldn't use arch-install you're using something you didn't build. you don't know how it works, you don't know what you can use, you have to learn the designed workflow instead of building your own. and you're gonna end up rewriting half of the configs anyway. just spend the day or two understanding nvim, so you can save a year or two using it.
@@frittex I did that before. I just don't have enough time to re-invent the wheel every single time, when I can simply use the tool. Nowadays I just do not have as much time as I had almost 25years ago, when I was also compiling Gentoo from different stages, as well as micro optimizing my kernel and so on, and I patiently waited for days for the process to be complete.

It's not for everyone for sure, but do realize this video is not intended to 'sell' neovim, only to show that it can become a very capable Rust editor if you want it to. Most aspects that differentiate are not mentioned, so it is impossible to make an informed decision based on this, of course. If you are content, the by all means, don't worry about it.

Use Helix, vim-like editor that is written in Rust
i downloaded the initlua and mappings from github and replaced in my config. running dt works but dc doesnt
there's a typo in his config on github, on line 16 of mappings.lua instead of being `"dc"` its `"dc>"` remove the `>` at the end

Hello! I ask from ignorance, sorry if anyone is offended, why would you want to use Neovim instead of an IDE like VS Code? Isn't it more complicated to work from a terminal, while with an IDE everything is faster and simpler?

Do Neovim and you understand your projects. This IS fast and simple.
neovim can use all the features of vscode and has keybinds that are easier to learn. If u have watched theprimagen code on stream, you can see how quickly he can move with a basic neovim setup.
we use it to have the right to say "I use Neovim BTW"
Vim is the Endgame.
Now do the same for Helix 👍
I also tried neovim in windows and it sucks.
How to do proper configuration for windows?
The issue I am having is it fails to load analyzer.
run this in an administrator powershell: rustup component add rust-analyzer
Then to test it's working run: rust-analyzer --version
should fix issue with rust analyzer not being properly installed by Mason
best video to convince ppl not to use neovim keke

theres tiling window managers for macos too AFAIK
Thanks
Nice :)
What to do if rust-analyzer is unsupported in Mason? 😢
The ultimate Chad guide.
which macos terminal app do you use?
Worth mentioning is that this setup doesn't seem to work well with the standard MacOS Terminal program, which doesn't support features like true colors. I recommend wezterm, but other modern terminals should work as well.
Any plugin that imports missing references/crates at the top of the file automatically? Similarly to how IDEs do it.
nvim
how can i get code actions to work in this ?
just a suggestion: suspend the microphone holder so it does not capture the sound of your keystrokes. I mean, keystrokes are fine but instead we hear a muffled sound like constantly hitting the desk with something and is annoying for those of us who use headphones.
At the end of the day, everyone wants a GUI, then why not install VSCode straight away?
Does refactoring work?
how to enable inlay-hint???

Coming soon :)
I think helix is not bad too
or you just go with Helix.... and life is beautiful
I used Helix before nvim, not going back. But I might try it again in a couple of years and see what state it's in.
Use Helix and not be able to customize anything. Huge win!
If Helix had 2-3 features that I am missing, then imho it would be vastly superior to Neovim. Maybe some day.
@rasibn I customized a lot of things on my liking. I am pretty happy with the results.
