i love vim; it feels like a super power. here are some miscellanious links, notes, references related to vim and neovim.
Many refer to all of these things as "vim":
- [vi] - bill joy - 1976
- [vim]>) - bram boolenaar - 1991
- [neovim]#Neovim>) - 2015
i find it really awesome to see how many other things have a "vi mode" or
otherwise try to capitalize on the same type of keybindings. for example, in
bash you can run `set -o vi` to set your keybindings to the same as vi. and
even if you are using the newest plugins with neovim, the core code navigation
that vi first helped popularize is still available on just about any unix machine.
- if you're just getting started with neovim, i would highly recommend checking
out the [kickstart.nvim] project
, which feels like it gives you the majority of the essential plugins without
making you copy a giant configuration you don't understand. it's honestly a
great project to copy and then modify as you go forward, its also small
enough to understand as you go through it
- [neovimcraft] has a great selection of plugins that are
ranked and filtered in a way that is useful for figuring out how to solve the
problem you need.
- when i was first introduced to vim by my manager at the time, justin force,
he told me to just play [vim adventures]. its a
cute video game that teaches you the "hello world" type of navigation when
getting started
- [vim from the ground up]
- [TJ DeVries] has a
[youtube-channel] that covers a lot of
different aspects of learning, extending, and otherwise utilizing neovim. he
is a core developer of neovim and also an author of multiple popular plugins
