I've been using Lilypond to write musical notation with code, and here I write about how to get a convenient, smooth experience while writing that code in Neovim!

I'm definitely planning to stick with this, and I'll be writing about some more fun things to do with Lilypond soon […]

There's a nice plugin to write sheet music in Lilypond right from Neovim: https://github.com/martineausimon/nvim-lilypond-suite

I can get syntax highlighting, error-checking, autocompletion from a dictionary, etc., and it has keybindings to render/open the PDF score.
