Your mouse is a bit like an implant a doctor would have put on your body at a very young age, telling your parent that it’s the best device to do something on a computer. You like it because you’re deeply used to it, for a very long time. -

I like vim because of its powerful navigation, editing and automation capabilities. It does wonders in abstracting patterns in the code that will save you both time and keystrokes. As a consequence, I use the mouse less, and now I'm much more appreciative of keyboard navigation.

A couple years ago, I was very into the church of Vim (but then sort of grew up). So I made a bit of a tutorial which hopefully explains my workflow with vim and what I believe to be a good starting point to get better at it.

(Emacs is also nice, and Lisp is great, but vim is just superior in text editing; doom emacs found a nice balance between both!)

You’ll notice that there are little bumps on the f and j keys on your keyboard: they are indicators for you to know where to put your indexes. When they are at the good position, simply place the other fingers on the other row keys.

It can be very powerful to write latex.

In general, this page needs a bit of work, but I also need a place to dump the various vim tricks I know and make use of.
