January 2026 — Gentlemen.Dots monthly summary for performance review. Key features delivered: - Neovim Integration Enhancements: added DAP debugging support, buffer picker keymap in snacks.nvim, and find buffers to improve debugging workflow and buffer management. - TUI: Vim Trainer with a horizontal module, enabling a compact terminal-based training experience. - Vim Mastery Trainer modules: added all Vim modules with exercises and boss fights, expanding hands-on learning coverage. - Installer Improvements: interactive steps for sudo and chsh, OS pre-selection with Ghostty warning on Debian, and ensuring .config directory is created before copying starship.toml, reducing setup friction. - Documentation and UI improvements: updated README and docs sections; migrated UI components toward SketchyBar with floating islands, animations, dynamic colors, and a GPU usage indicator for Apple Silicon; packaging and dependency updates to v2.4.3. Major bugs fixed: - TUI: removed a bash script and fixed Ubuntu add-apt-repository issues to simplify and harden the install path. - Installer: ensured .config directory exists before starship config copy; improved PATH handling and error reporting during install. - Zsh: resolved recursive .zshenv bug to stabilize shell integration. - Neovim startup issues: eliminated Node.js version debug prints and fixed Obsidian.nvim breaking changes. - Termux/Android packaging and PATH fixes to improve cross-platform behavior. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Reduced onboarding time and improved cross-platform reliability, increasing developer productivity and confidence in the toolkit. - Strengthened the Neovim-related tooling, terminal UI, and installer experiences, enabling faster iterations and fewer support escalations. - Demonstrated end-to-end capability from development tooling (Neovim, TUI) to distribution (installers, packaging) and documentation. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Neovim/Lua plugin development, DAP integration, and advanced buffer management. - Terminal UI/UX design (Vim Trainer, horizontal module, SketchyBar). - Cross-platform installer scripting and OS detection (sudo/chsh prompts, .config handling, Ghostty warnings). - Packaging, versioning and release processes (Brew/Homebrew, v2.x packaging, Docker/GPG flows). - Documentation, testing (unit and E2E), and robust Git-based release notes.
