A galaxy far, far away

I open source every tool I write for myself. I'm interested in parsers, Rust, language design, and databases.

But my most popular work is with high performance Lua Neovim plugins (such as my colorizer), and I plan on making many more. I also plan to write accompanying blogs to explain my design decisions for the relevant projects below at https://blog.kiani.io

Currently I'm working on the following projects:

  • [neovim] Completer to compete with coc.nvim, but without external dependencies (20% done)
  • [neovim] UI dialogue menu like for fuzzy finders or interactive menus (40% done)
  • [neovim] Job system for background jobs in Neovim (80% done)
  • [parsers] A constant memory JSON parser written in Rust (99% done, needs publishing)

I also contribute directly to neovim/neovim, swaywm/sway, and other projects, and some of my plugin work for neovim is being integrated into the mainline.
