When will be zencoder avaliable on Neovim?
Zencoder
@sayyidalijufri I don't have that info, and to my knowledge, this is not on our immediate roadmap. However, we are collecting these requests, so I'll make sure this one gets to our product team as well. We currently support VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and Android Studio. We had some questions about Visual Studio and XCode, and together with your Neovim request, we are considering them all.
Thanks for making the time to comment and ask!
@vibor_cipan Oh I see waiting for neovim

@sayyidalijufri Shared your feedback with the team today!
Btw, what do you like the most about the Neovim comapred to VS Code/JetBrains IDEs?
How limited is Zencoder by just being a plugin and not an IDE? I know the Supermaven team said they ran into a brick wall building for JetBrains IDEs and could not take it farther because of memory constraints but I'm not sure how much of that was real. Does being just a plugin limit you?

@steveb Nice question, Steve, I appreciate it.
It has some limitations, but we can currently work around them. I can't say we've seen significant memory issues until now.
But this was a deliberate product decision from our end: to try to meet developers where they are and work in the IDEs they are already using (and hopefully liking).
With integrations (native for Jira, 20+ via Chrome extension, support for the MCP), we think we can support dev and engineering workflows in this current setup. That said, we constantly seek feedback, talk, and evaluate decisions as we grow, including what other IDEs we might support in the future.
Thanks for stopping by and asking a cool question!
I used it for 5 minutes and got this:
"You reached the limit for advanced AI requests available in your plan for today. Try again in 20 hours, 24 minutes, 39 seconds."
What are the limits?
When using ZenCoder in Android Studio on Windows and entering instructions, it is frustrating the the Ctrl+Right and Ctrl+Left keystrokes jump to the start and end of the input. They should jump by word. Same for Ctrl+Shift+Right/Left.
