Pascal Kuthe 8cb7cdfd7a discard stale completion requests
Completion requests are computed asynchronously to avoid common micro
freezes while editing. This means that once a completion request
completes, the state of the editor might have changed. Currently,
there is a check to ensure we are still in insert mode. However,
we also need to ensure that the view and document hasn't changed
to avoid accidentally using a savepoint with the wrong view/document.

Furthermore, the editor might request a new completion while the
previous completion request hasn't complemented yet. This can
lead to weird flickering or an outdated completion request replacing
a newer completion that has already completed (the LSP server
is not required to process completion requests in order). This change
also needed to ensure determinism/linear ordering so that completion
popup always correspond to the last completion request.

A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.

The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.

For more information, see the website or documentation.

All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.

Troubleshooting

Features

  • Vim-like modal editing
  • Multiple selections
  • Built-in language server support
  • Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter

It's a terminal-based editor first, but I'd like to explore a custom renderer (similar to Emacs) in wgpu or skulpin.

Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check runtime/queries/<lang>/ for indents.scm.
