4 - Dillon Mulroy
Dillon is a Staff Software Engineer working at Skolem. He primarily focuses on the TypeScript, React, and Node ecosystems, however, I have recently found a love for OCaml and have been exploring that.
Neovim
Dillon is a recent Neovim convert, he used VSCode since its release in 2015 (and Atom before that), but in October he took the plunge and switched to Neovim and hasn’t looked back since.
Tip
“Learn Lua and read the Neovim docs. Extending Neovim is super approachable, easy, and ergonomic, empowering you to truly make your editor yours and perfectly adapted to your needs and workflows.” - Dillon
