Summary: Some information I would have love to learn earlier in (Neo)Vim.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
[Neovim](https://neovim.org/) is a modal text editor, a direct heir from the one
|
|
and only [Vim](https://www.vim.org), which inherited the title from
|
|
[vi](https://ex-vi.sourceforge.net/).
|
|
This text editor family is quite widespread, and it's not uncommon to end up
|
|
with life choices such as [Vim vs
|
|
Emacs](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guerre_d%27%C3%A9diteurs) when looking for
|
|
a text editor.
|
|
|
|
Aside from trolls, I'm an everyday Vim/Neovim user to write code, [some
|
|
emails]({filename}../tips/emails-md.md), take notes, write this blog…
|
|
|
|
However, if you are already a vim-user or simply interested in it and already
|
|
tried, you may have noticed that the learning curve can be steep, and it is
|
|
somewhat difficult to find some useful pieces of information, especially when we
|
|
don't even know it exists.
