Firenvim

Interesting about the security note and WASM re: the Neovim version. (see here: https://github.com/glacambre/firenvim) Does this open up an attack surface on users using vim/neovim? This page seems to indicate that neovim (and this) do not run in a sandbox <i>already</i>. Can anyone with more knowledge on this expand on that?

vscode.dev

VSCode has a web app: https://vscode.dev You can even use the VSCodeVim extension (minus neovim-powered features) inside it. You can turn on Settings sync and it will share as many extensions as it can with your Desktop setup, and also your theme and other stuff. VSCode.dev has a really cool Theme Playground. For instance, if you were curious to see what my current "synthwave-inspired" theme that I like to use looks like (with a variety of different file types open): https://vscode.dev/theme/jaredkent.laserwave The more interesting and generally most useful way to get to VSCode.dev is from GitHub or Azure Repos. Use the keyboard shortcut "." in a repo file listing to open that Repo on the web in VSCode.dev (or GitHub uses GitHub.dev but it is the same VS Code tech).
