This year, I decided to learn how to use Vim motions.

The reason? I want to avoid future wrist pain from using the mouse way too much, so I want to spend as much time on the keyboard as possible. I also want to be a bit more efficient with my tools, so I think using Vim motions would help me tremendously.

For now, the goal is to finish this Vim ebook tutorial, then I'll also do my next coding tasks and projects using Vim motions to grow used to them. At the end of the year, I want to be proficient at using Vim motions, and maybe start making my own config of Vim.

Goal Activity

Matheus Felipe marked progress on Learn Vim motions

I read about 4 new chapters of this book, and I can already move (rather inefficiently) and apply some specific changes using the keyboard commands. There's still things I need to learn to use, so it's been a bit hard.

Goal Conversation

I took part in the 42 Wolfsburg course on programming, finished a bunch of projects and then lost interest after getting through with the Fractal visualization part. But learning C was very interesting and using vim was a hardcore experience. I did not go too deep and still I can do basic stuff from memory... but I have been thinking about it at discovering this Goal here is just Felt The Call :D :D I can do multiline-copy or how did they say, yanking? (it's been a while) and maybe exit vim in 3-4 different ways... haha, cheers! Lets gogo... Also which IDE do you use? I started with PHPStorm on my work now for 2 years (I write frontend)...
