From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm getting back into coding and I'm going to start with python but I wanted to see what are some good IDEs to write the code. Thanks in advance.

You can already do so incredibly much by hooking up a few extra LSPs and keybinds (calling external scripts/programs)!

What I'm personally still missing though:

Code Folding
More refined subprocess handling, i.e. term-buffer switching or floating term (when excuting gitui via keybind for example)
Emacs Org-Mode like context aware styling, for i.e. Bold or Italic text hints from LSP
- Font changes (restricted through terminal)
- Different Font/Line sizes for i.e. headings (restricted through terminal)
- Inline images (sixel!)
Dedicated optional client, a-la Neovide with cursor animations (helps orientation with jumps etc.), and to alleviate the previous terminal restrictions

Yes, agreed. But I would still love some git integration that can't be emulated like this. For now git cli + lazygit for more easier refinement works fine, but it's not ideal.

Hmm, isn't this already the case for, like, markdown? Or what do you mean by context-aware?
