I’m kinda a Vimhead so I’m just using Vim and hand-compiling but I’m interested to see with which tools you people are working with

    I really need to just sit down and learn vim. It just never clicks with me. Everyone loves it so clearly it’s good, but I need to learn it. Anyone have any resources (besides vimtutor) or is it just a matter of forcing yourself to use it?

      A good starting place: how to grok vim. Also check out vimrc on github, it’s a good collection of plugins so you don’t have to start from complete scratch. Oh an coc.nvim turns vim into an IDE with auto complete and error checking for most languages.

      When I wanted to learn vim, I just forced me to do every text editing task with it. After a day, I knew the basics.
      You can check this (but vimtutor will always be there for you) :)

        This is useful. Although I still don’t know how there are people so skilled with this kind of programs! Vim looks and feels hard to use :see-no-evil monkey:

          It’s just that it has a steep learning curve. But once you kinda used to vim, it begins to be really “easy” and powerful

      Well you don’t actually need to. I refuse!
