I'm with you. I'm going to try Zed in the next couple days based on the response to my comment here. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44322560 . I'm stuck with vim. My fingers nearly only work vim, but I managed to move to neovim, which worked. Maybe (something else) can work too.

as an avid vim user who moved to emacs evil-mode for a better vim than vim, and now who uses vscode with vscode-vim, it pains me to admit a web browser based editor is a better vim than vim. Somehow starts faster and is less kludgey and more scriptable. You can install extensions on phoenix.new, so vim is not a blocker for you. I drive vim emulation in it every day both on desktop app and within phoenix.new. Couldn't use it without it :)

My main issue with vim emulation is that you cannot do file management and windows management.

In my vim workflow I keep splitting/unsplitting windows and I like to have a file browser I can navigate with vim bindings.

You can pull the repo, tweak it locally with Vim, push it back and ask the LLM to work on top of that. No need to use the built in IDE if you don’t like it.
