GPU-accelerated renderer

What the fuck?

Sounds pretty cool. Sometimes ill do a quick series of edits in vim and it fuckin chugs. I'm definitly gonna try it

Pretty common feature. Sublime, Lapce, VS Code, certain Emacs distributions, certain NeoVim GUIs... We live in a world where a lot of people have GPUs and CPUs aren't getting faster so if you want to get more work done (ie, running LSPs, tree sitter, completion engines, snippet engines, debuggers etc) you need to offload some of that work somewhere
