feat(coding): Use Neovim's built in commenting#16
Merged
Conversation
`Comment.nvim` stopped active development about 2 years ago. The implementation for commenting relied on an old API that hasn't yet been patched. Almost two months ago, this was opened to handle it but there hasn't been any progress: numToStr/Comment.nvim#518 Since then, Neovim has supported commenting using identical keymaps powered by Treesitter and commentstring (`:h commenting` and `:h commentstring`). Let's just use native Neovim functionality!

There was a problem hiding this comment.
isn't this just removing the remap? if we want \cc to still comment things I think we can leave this in, getting rid of comment.nvim should be enough

\cc comments out code without this remap!
