The VIM editor reinvented in Rust+TypeScript.

[!CAUTION]

This project is still in the very early stages of development and not ready for use. Please choose alternatives Neovim and Vim.

About

The goal of RSVIM is to be a highly extensible text editor by following the main features and philosophy of (Neo)VIM, while also to be:

• A fast editor that fully utilizes all CPU cores and never freezes.
• A powerful TUI engine that provides widgets, event handlers, layouts, etc.
• A consistent scripting runtime with built-in support for type system, async/await, plugin management, etc.
• An editing service that allows multiple users to access remotely and work together.
• A text processing tool that integrates with the shell environment.
