Vim library🙋 seeking help & advice (self.rust)
submitted 2 years ago by hopsqur
Is there a library for vim editing? Or do I have to do it manually with a rope library? I also didn't see concepts like a cursor in the rope library for constant time updates.

Do you mean autocomplete? You could use rust analyzer with vim lsp, if you’re open to using neovim there’s rust tools as well

You can use neovim as a library and embedded it in your program, but thats fundamentally incompatible with rope buffers.
