Eovim
Eovim, the Enlightened Neovim Client
I'm sure you already have heard of Neovim. It is a popular fork of ViM that refactors it to ease its maintainance while additor modern features. One of them being providing an RPC API for clients to provide remote UIs for Neovim. That's exactly what Eovim attempts to be: a remote UI for Neovim. Excepts that it is enlightened!

git clone https://github.com/jeanguyomarch/eovim
or:
git clone https://git.enlightenment.org/devs/jayji/eovim.git
If you want to compile the latest release (not the development version) then run the following from the eovim/ directory you just fetched:
