Posted on August 3, 2024
Hey DEV community,
I'm excited to share something I've been working on - Vimtutor Sequel! 🎉
After going through the original vimtutor
, I felt there was a need for an extended tutorial for some more advanced topics not covered in the original tutor program.
What's Vimtutor Sequel?
Vimtutor Sequel picks up where the original vimtutor
left off. It’s designed for those who already know the basics and are ready to dive into more advanced Vim features and commands.
Key Features
- Advanced Topics: Dive into splits, spellcheck, advanced search and replace, macros, Vim scripting, plugins, sessions, and registers.
- Step-by-Step Tutorials: Hands-on lessons that encourage you to practice commands as you learn.
-
Custom Vim Configuration: Comes with a custom vimrc to ensure a consistent learning experience and mimic the original
vimtutor
.
How to Install
For Mac
To get started, install Vimtutor Sequel using Homebrew:
brew install vimtutor-sequel
How to Use
To start the Vimtutor Sequel lessons, just run:
vimtutor-sequel
For Windows/Linux
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/micahkepe/vimtutor-sequel.git
- Navigate to the repository:
cd vimtutor-sequel
- Make a Copy of the Tutorial:
cp vimtutor-sequel.txt vimtutor-sequel-copy.txt
- Run Vim with the Custom Configuration:
vim -u vimtutor-sequel.vimrc vimtutor-sequel-copy.txt
Looking for Feedback!
I'd love to hear what you think! Whether you spot any bugs, have suggestions for new lessons, or just want to share your thoughts, your feedback is really appreciated. Feel free to contribute or open issues on the GitHub repo.
