Rust programs are easy enough to install The Nix Way so there's no real
reason to put .cargo in $PATH, especially when programs that have
dependencies like openssl won't work this way.
It turns out I don't use deno nearly as much as I thought I would,
especially when the current node ecosystem works so, so well in
comparison.
I also haven't encountered any deno-specific programs that would be
worth installing globally.
Shouldn't be needed since I'm no longer interested in long-term Go
development. For when I *do* need to use Go, those packages can be
built as Nix derivations.
vim-prisma currently has an issue where the syntax highlighting gets
messed up as one scrolls. The treesitter version doesn't have this
issue, which makes it more pleasing to work with.
Note that Vue tooling is seemingly subpar compared to React + TypeScript
so despite learning Vue first (and Angular.js before that), I don't
think I'd ever want to work with Vue again after getting familiar with
functional programming and React.
I never used this and it seems to cause more issues than it's worth.
It's easier to simply hide the tree on the left and manually adjust the
size of the kitty window.
This fixes an issue where syntax highlighting was fixed upstream, which
broke my workflow since I was using the changing colors of the plugin
to determine when the LSP was loaded in. I also liked how it syntax
highlighted valid identifiers a different color than invalid ones.

I'll still use pnpm when I *need* to, however the lack of support for
pnpm in nixpkgs is a show-stopper I'd rather not have to deal with when
npm works out of the box.
pnpm was originally used for faster install times and pnpm workspaces,
however npm now has its own workspaces and I'm okay with slower install
times if it means that everything works without fragile workarounds.
Yarn has been outdated for a while now, especially with the failure for
new projects to switch to "berry" among other things. I should never
need to use it again, but if I do, I don't need the abbreviations.
Yarn was originally used for yarn workspaces and faster install times.
Nowadays, however, other package managers are able to do both in more
efficient ways.
Apparently dropping "Yet Another TypeScript Syntax" makes the startup
time of Neovim about twice as fast. This was originally added to fix an
issue with "type" annotations in imports being incorrect, although this
appears to have been fixed now.
From a cursory glance, there seems to be no difference between yats-vim
and the treesitter syntax highlighting I use, so it should be fine to
drop this for the massive performance gains.
2.0 introduces some kind of breaking change that results in the cursor
appearing larger than usual, which I haven't been able to find an answer
for. The 1.1 cursor has been great already, so I'll probably stick with
that until further notice.
