Nev

Nev is a text editor focused on keyboard usage, customizability and speed which runs in the terminal and in a GUI. It also aims to provide tools for writing code out of the box, like Git integration, syntax highlighting using Treesitter, language integration using LSP and debugging using DAP.

Nev is still relatively new, so many things are still missing or need improvement. If you want to contribute check out this.

There is a Discord server where you can ask questions as well.
