Frequently Asked Questions
Downloads & Updates
What does Early Access mean?
Early Access gives you access to nightly development builds as we're working on build out the editor. It's an opportunity to be involved and give us feedback as we're building it out.
However, there may be bugs or features missing as we are still pushing towards our 'V1'.
What are the system requirements?
The system requirements are listed here.
Where can I download a build?
Pre-alpha builds are available for users who have pre-ordered via our Early Access Portal.
If you haven't pre-ordered, you can still try it out by following our build instructions.
How do I update my build?
Nightly builds are published to the Early Access Portal.
Auto-update is a work-in-progress, until it is implemented, you'll need to download the latest build manually from the Early Access Portal.
Is there a trial version?
Not yet - but once we hit V1, we'll be making a trial / evaluation version available for download.
In the meantime, though, you can build from source if you want to give it a shot.
Technology
Why are you using Revery & ReasonML instead of ?
In my opinion, the model of UI as a pure function of state, as popularized by React, Redux, and Elm, is the simplest way to build a UI-driven app.
ReasonML (which is really OCaml under the hood) is a perfect fit for that paradigm: a performant, functional-focused language.
Functionality
Can I use my init.vim or .vimrc with Onivim 2?
Eventually! This is the goal of our Beta Build milestone.
