Hi friends

I recently got back into using tidal cycles and wanted to try and so I decided to make a modern neovim-style plugin for coding tidal 🙂

It’s still early days but feel free to check it out and contribute if you feel like it:

Hey welcome back 🙂

FYI only, there is quite a bit of movement in the tidal neovim space atm - @mrreason has forked and is extending work with event highlighting done by @grddavies

> [@NeoVim Event Highlighting + custom keybindings](https://club.tidalcycles.org/t/neovim-event-highlighting-custom-keybindings/5896):

> Just in case someone is curious about that kind of stuff. I extended the NeoVim lua plugin from grddavies and made some adjustments: I added the TidalCycles Event Highlighting (!), I made it more efficient, so that the plugin can handle bigger files and evaluations fast (nearly immediately) The Notification window can be removed and added again., GitHub Link: [https://github.com/thgrund/tidal.nvim](https://github.com/thgrund/tidal.nvim "https://github.com/thgrund/tidal.nvim") I did this, because I wanted to play around with some makros and keybindings. This is really pro…

Regardless, I’ve followed you across various social networks over the last 5 years or more, and I’m looking very much forward to seeing what your take on a tidal neovim interface is 🤯 🚑
