Do you have anything to improve remote (SSH?) development? Meaning: the frontend is GPU accelerated, and that is great, but if you are fetching pages from the server instead of caching the buffers and intelligently fetching the LSP (or whatever language backend is used) updates, we are bottlenecked by the SSH connection latency

To possibly save some clicks for others: repo did not exist a month ago and claude use seems extensive. Chances are it will be gone/unmaintained by July!

Nice project! Curious why build a new front end instead of fixing (?) the behaviour in upstream Kakoune? I think the original author’s still working on Kakoune
