Mastering Vim and Neovim

Whether you're tired of clunky editors with long startup times or just want to finally “get” Vim, this course gets you up and running fast. You'll build the muscle memory to use Vim in your daily workflow - whether that’s writing code, editing config files, or just navigating text files faster.

What you'll learn:

• Open, edit, and save files confidently in Vim
• Navigate files with speed using Vim's core movement motions
• Customize your editor with a .vimrc file
• Use the built-in help command so you never get stuck again
• Get introduced to tools like vimdiff and simple multi-window workflows
• Advanced topic lectures are also added such as:
  • Macros
  • Marks
  • Folds
  • Ex mode
  • Using the command line history window
• Multitasking
  • Learn about Buffers and Windows
  • And a tiny preview on Tabs
• Neovim
  • Configuring with Lua
• And more added periodically!

No fluff. No need to memorize every obscure command. Just a solid, practical foundation that you can build upon.

Perfect for:

• Devs who’ve always meant to learn Vim but never stuck with it
• Engineers switching to terminal-based workflows
• Anyone tired of the mouse slowing them down
• Training for the Linux Foundation SC100 Vim Credential

About the Teacher

Hi! I'm a full-time developer with experience in using (Neo)Vim and other terminal tools in real-world projects. I created this course to save you from slow trial and error and help you build a rock-solid foundation from day one.

I’ve taught myself Vim, Tmux, Git, Linux, and more. Because of that, I know exactly what beginners struggle with. My goal is to make that learning curve smoother.

Let's level up your workflow, one keystroke at a time.

• Software engineers wanting edit files efficiently from the terminal.
• People wanting to take on CompTIA Linux+ or LPIC certifications.
• CompSci students wanting to learn Vim to flex on classmates.
• Developers wanting to study for the Linux Foundation SC100 Vim Credential.

• You don't need to know any Vi/Vim or Linux to finish this course.
• Having a Linux distribution installed (or on a VM) can be useful but is not required.
• You're not required to follow along, but it is highly recommended.
