I use markdown extension on chrome to see md files written in vim - if I have to !

As for writing docs .. #mdbook is my go to .. with mdbook I can serve the book to localhost which is pretty nice to review the work ..

On vim plug-ins .. my fav is coc-vim .. it has everything - spell checkers and language tool for grammar .. and most of the code analyzers too ..just in case you wanna review code ..

But the primary reason , I stick to vim is it is great in terminal .. firing up GUI on my old desktop makes it super sluggish :-) And my laptop always stays in back pack :-)

This looks promising. Thanks.

It does need node js but it is super fast .. almost as good as native vim plugins ( if not faster ) .. and no dependence on GUI ..

They have sample config in readme file .. works on both nvim and vim ..

Thanks for the ⚡ s ☺️

Yeh, not crazy about that dependency, but good to hear it's fast. I did poke around the install docs. I don't see a clean way to drop it into my lazyvim config, but I'll keep digging.

https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim this is the one you need to drop into config .. I use vim-plug so not sure about lazyvim config but should work out in similar way ...

The link you shared is the market place built on Coc .. It is a good idea but I have no use of it :-)

Once you have the plugin installed .. :PlugInstall in my case with vim-plug - then you can install other coc-extensions .. for example :cocInstall coc-ltex for language tools .. there are tons of them which you can see at the market place ..

You can also install marketplace as an extension :CocInstall coc-marketplace .. it is just a fancier way to search coc extensions ..

Thanks. I got it working, and tried it a bit. Pretty kludgy, but I'll keep tinkering and see what I can do. Thanks for the pointers!
