Neovim

Neovim is faster than other editors. The speed of Neovim's parsing and execution is caused by using the Nvim scripting engine, which was specifically designed for Vim. Neovim is a text editor that runs in your terminal or console and has redefined the way we write code. Neovim is faster than other editors and brings you a blazing fast editing experience by utilizing the latest technologies like Inside, which provides Vim’s configuration in Javascript and allows you to use simple shortcuts without switching modes. Neovim uses internal Linux commands as much as possible and attempts to be idempotent so you have the best possible performance across all systems. Neovim is a text editor and Terminal emulator. Neovim provides Vim script bindings and extensibility through Plugins, allowing users to alter its behavior in ways not possible with the Vim core. Its performance is comparable to other popular terminal-based editors such as Emacs. Neovim is a real-time multi-platform editor powered by a virtual machine. It allows you to edit your code in real-time, reactively preview changes, navigate efficiently, and easily navigate through a tree of text objects (e.g., words, lines, sentences) using the mouse or keyboard. The performance of Neovim, which supports many other languages in addition to modern scripting languages, is comparable with that of the latest versions of Vim.

We’re excited to share that Neovim now fully supports Lua's script! As the open-source successor of Vim, Neovim can be used as an editor for writing HTML, CSS code, and JavaScript. It supports many advanced features like engine switching and auto-completion for most programming languages. More details can be found in doc:about_Lua. You can write Lua in Neovim, and we are working to bring the powerful language to many editors. Neovim is the fastest Vim extension when it comes to editing plain text files. It also supports integration with Python and other languages, such as JavaScript.

Neovim is faster than any other editor, even including Sublime Text. You can run Neovim in a Docker container and use the built-in local server for hosting the editor locally. We have built many plugins for Neovim and many more will be developed in the future.
