Hey guys! One of the best things I learned last year for my developer experience was vim. I found that the normal way to learn vim was kind of boring and took a long time to really memorize the useful commands. So I built vim.so. It helps you get the muscle memory needed to be useful in vim faster than was possible before. Some features: - Learn in the browser - Learn with muscle memory based exercises - 10 interactive lessons and 1 overview video - Learn the most useful commands so that you can be effective in vim faster.

@kennethcassel hey this is super awesome! I've always had an interest in VIM but everytime I thought of it, I'd always tell myself, "ugh no time for that". This is really exciting to me! I came across it during my search for the best personal knowledge database program and vim came up everytime. I would never see someone with a neutral opinion on it - the comments were always from the die hard vim obsessed. When I get paid I'll be sure to keep this at the top of my shopping list as well as get started asap! Thank you friend

@shannon_byrne Thanks for the kind words Shannon! It's funny, I'm not a vim zealot and I realize it's not for everyone. That being said, I do think it should be more approachable and I hope vim.so does just that for folks :)

Watching Ken build this on Twitter has been very cool - such an intuitive way to teach something!
Kenneth Cassel
@ryan___doyle Thanks Ryan! It's been a ton of fun and super helpful to me doing this out in public for sure. The site wouldn't be 1/2 as good without all the great feedback from the twitter dev community :)

OMG, I hate vim! I seldom use it so, whenever I do, I have to relearn it all over again. This is why I've been following vim.so. It will be a life-saver! I'm so hyped @kennethcassel finally launched it on PH!
Kenneth Cassel
@mrcordeiro Thanks Fernando :) I hope i convert some vim haters into vim lovers
Stanley
I love it! As a CS student, I wonder how you technically doing this
Kenneth Cassel
@s_stanley The editor component is an open source component called Ace. It has vim binding plugins you can add to it. Sprinkle a little JS on top and you have vim.so :)
