This setup makes for an interesting blog post, but it goes too far toward being an IDE for my taste. Part of what I like about Vim is that you can customize it to be anything from just text editing—albeit fast and productive text editing—to a full-blown (if hacked-together) IDE.

I think what I would like is a way to embed Vim or Neovim into Rstudio. Rstudio's Vim mode is nice, but I'm too used to my own customizations. It looks like people have experimented with doing this: https://github.com/jalvesaq/Nvim-R/issues/142.
