• regular Vim has lua?!

  Lua is quite small, encouraging distros to include it. The ubuntu gvim has, and the gvim AppImage linked from vim.org does. The default Makefile from github is set up to not include it, but you can uncomment one line there to get it. Source: over 3 years ago

• is there a way to make highlighted text persistent after quit when using something like [match Search /\%'.line('.').'l/] ?

  I've not used vimwiki locally (tho I'm old enough to remember the Vim wiki on vim.org :), but I think what you are wanting to do is extend vimwiki's syntax file. I presume it installs one at $VIMRUNTIM/syntax or or ~/.vim/syntax. If this sounds right, then create a ~/.vim/after/syntax/vimwiki.vim file and place your match command in there. Then everytime you open a vimwiki file it should apply your... Source: over 3 years ago

• vim.org - Is there a reason for this 1800s-esque design?

  Vim.org has 242k total visitors, tailwindcss.com has 4.4m, planetscale.com has 412k, jpl.nasa.gov has 2.6m, all built with Tailwind, all several years younger than Vim's website. Unnecessary comparison, unnecessary defence. It's a valuable tool, fine, but a complete disregard for anyone who doesn't love a crappy website and would like to navigate a website like a normal human is not something to be defended. Maybe...

• What is YOUR process of writing ?

  I write in Vim with some customizations in my vimrc to gear it more towards prose writing than code editing. It's not pretty, but Normal Mode and Ex commands are the most powerful text editing tools out there, so that means I spend less time on making corrections and other edits. Source: over 4 years ago

  I am building _exactly_ the same thing for Playwright over at https://ray.run/. I think this is the future of writing tests no doubt. Planning to launch next week. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ask HN: What's the best way to add search to my website?

  Your website https://ray.run/ does have that nostalgic early 2000s vibe, which is cool! Regarding the search functionality, you might want to explore open-source alternatives to Algolia. Projects like Elasticsearch, Solr, or even using Google Custom Search can provide search capabilities without the cost. They might require a bit more setup and maintenance, but they can be budget-friendly options for a free... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ask HN: What's the best way to add search to my website?

  I have a quite unique website https://ray.run/ I tried to create a website like the ones I remember browsing back in early 2000s. It has questions from the users, discord forum archive, dev tools, videos, etc. I want to find a way to add search for users. I see it on the other websites, and usually they use Algolia. However, my community is entirely free and their product is paid. What can I do instead? - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ask HN: Has anyone migrated from Next.js to Astro and can offer a perspective?
