## Why
|
|
|
|
### 1. VimsCode, it's beautifull
|
|
|
|
To write or edit computer code, program an arduino etc... we use IDE (integrated development environment)
|
|
Many very complete graphic software exist to do that like VScode from microsoft or Atom.
|
|
|
|
So why not use them ?
|
|
|
|
**drawbacks :**
|
|
|
|
* They are resource intensive, lots of RAM (~1.3 GB, about 18,000 times more than the Apollo 11 mission that sent the first men to the moon :/ )
|
|
* They are quite difficult to debug because of the large abstraction layers that make them up
|
|
* They don't work without a graphical system (through ssh, on a server or a Raspberry Pi)
|
|
* It is sometimes difficult to make them do something simple if it was not planned by the developers
|
|
* Its frequent updates sometimes impose changes in working habits (new interfaces, new default configuration, new paths etc.)
|
|
|
|
So which solution? We suggest you use one of the historical command line text editors (vi, Vim) to make your own IDE :)
|
|
|
|
**Advantages :**
|
|
|
|
* Lightweight, ~15Kb which is 4.6 x less than Apollo 11 and 83000 times less than VSCODE!!!
|
|
* Configurable, you can configure everything in text files from already shared and popular configurations
|
|
* Stable, it only evolves without breaking the ergonomic continuity (always the same commands and shortcuts since 1991 for vim and 1976 for vi :) same for the configurations which remain valid since the beginning...)
|
|
* Usable through SSH on servers or very light computers (Raspberry Pi, etc.)
|
|
* Rock solid, crashes must exist, but I've never even heard of them
|
|
|

## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
1. Introduction:
|
|
|
|
Installation requires [git, wget, flex, bison, gperf, python3, python3-venv, cmake, ninja-build, ccache, libffi-dev, libssl-dev, dfu-util, libusb-1.0-0]
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
sudo apt install git, wget, flex, bison, gperf, python3, python3-venv, cmake, ninja-build, ccache, libffi-dev, libssl-dev, dfu-util, libusb-1.0-0, elinks
|
|
```
|
|
2. Set up VimsCode
|
|
|
|
git clone https://git.cohabit.fr/bastien/VimsCode.git
|
|
|
|
After clone don't forgot to rename "vimrc-conf" -> ".vimrc" and "/vim-conf" -> "/vim"
|
|
|

3. Install Plugins:
|
|
|
|
Launch `vim` and run `:PluginInstall`
|
|
|
|
