Love it @jaipandya! Reminds me of how VimTutor works (which worked great for me when learning Vim). It almost looks like you wrote a book inside of sublime. How long did it take to put this all together? How'd you get started?

@mscccc Thanks Mike. You definitely found the crux of it. It actually ended up being a book, just that the text differs in when you change the platform (windows/mac/linux). It has been a long and asynchronous effort, which didn't get completed in one go. But now I am happy that it came out well.
Initially, my plan was to make it even more interactive but there was only a limited set of things that I could accomplish in the boundaries of a text editor as a development platform. I then decided to make it as simple as Vimtutor. When I found myself thinking too much about features, I used vimtutor once again and I was all set.
I wrote about it in brief in my medium blog post: https://medium.com/@jaipandya/in...

@jaipandya I think it's a very smart format for teaching a text editor. Much more effective than a traditional book.
