My favorite right now that i use as often as I can is Neovim. I keep a repo on github (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;SirRamEsq&#x2F;NeoVimConfig" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;SirRamEsq&#x2F;NeoVimConfig</a>) with my config so I can just clone, run a command to install plugins, and be on my merry way.<p>At some point I may write a bash script to automate dependencies (like python3), but it&#x27;s not a big deal to set them up as it is.<p>My favorite plugins right now are -ALE, to check for C++ compile errors as I write -Deoplete for code completion -ctags for exuberent ctags support -ctrlP for easy file locating<p>I use the i3 window manager as well whenever I develop on a linux box. I&#x27;ve been at it for about 6 months or so and I&#x27;m starting to get pretty quick moving around using only the keyboard.
