Overview

OpenVim is a short web-based interactive tutorial that allows people quickly have a taste of what kind of an editor Vim is. This course will help you grasp the basics of Vim in no time through hands-on practice.

No prerequisites are required to take this course.

Syllabus

The course begins with a brief introduction to Vim. Next, you’ll learn that Vim consists of two modes: insert and normal. Then, you’ll learn how to navigate in normal mode using only your keys. You’ll also understand how to insert text so that you can make changes to the code.

Vim is an intelligent editor. You can navigate a file by finding a character in the same line or searching for a phrase. You’ll learn how to do all these essential navigation tasks and compose a series of keypresses together that’ll help you tell Vim precisely what you want to do. Finally, you’ll end the course by looking into another mode called visual mode that allows you to select phrases.
