> you can just as easily download the popular rust.vim plugin

Is it really "just as easy"? The last time I tried to install plugins for Vim it was not easy. Vim doesn't have a plug-in manager built in while VS Code, in this case, does, and it's 2 clicks to install and restart.

I would consider vim more customizable but I would not consider it "easier".

It's dead simple. No, it doesn't come out of the box, but it takes literally 5 minutes to install a plugin manager and you only have to do it once; afterwards, installing, updating or removing plugins takes literally seconds.

You're right, basic Vim or Neovim are definitely not easier, especially that you have multiple packages to choose from.

I believe it's easier to start with one of existing Vim configurations like Janus[0] or spf13-vim[1]. I tried a couple of such frameworks and they helped me a lot. They come with set of packages for navigation, fuzzy finding, as well as with some package manager. They're also quite easy to install.

There are vim packs on vim8, and neoplugin, vundle, vim-plug.

Easy to add new plugins, update and so on. And it’s usually just download one file to make it work.
