// FOR DEVELOPERS WHO WANT TO LEARN VIM
GET CRACKED AT VIM FAST
You won't learn Vim by watching scattered YouTube videos.
You can only learn it hands-on.
Our exercises take you from zero to advanced, one motion at a time.
Let's try with simple navigation - press "j" to go down, "k" to go up.
Vim modes
Each mode makes your keyboard do a different job - one mode types letters, another moves the cursor, another runs commands.
NORMAL · move + run commands
INSERT · type text (press i)
VISUAL · select text (press v)
COMMAND · run :commands
Press Esc to return to NORMAL.
// WHY BOTHER
WHY VIM IS WORTH LEARNING
- > It's a flex.
- > You're faster because you don't have to reach for a mouse at all.
- > Even if AI writes the code, you write everything else.
- >> prompts, markdowns, configs every day
- >> Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot all ship with Vim mode
- > Learn it once:
- >> be faster forever
- >> use everywhere - VSCode, JetBrains, SSH, Obsidian, Claude, Markdown
// CURRICULUM
YOUR FIRST 15 DAYS
Fifteen minutes a day. Each point below is what you can actually do by then. Pick one to see where you land, or open it for the modules behind it.
// FOUNDATIONS
DAY 04
You get around a file without the mouse.
The modes, the motions, and the everyday edits start to feel normal. You are doing real work in Vim and keeping up with your old speed.

What if I don't like the exercises? Can I get a refund?
Yes. If you haven't opened a lesson, you have 14 days. If you've already started, email us within 5 days of buying and we'll refund you in full. No questions asked.
Won't learning Vim slow me down at work?
For a few days, yes. The course is designed with this exact thing in mind - to shorten the transition phase so you're back to your current speed within a few days, and faster soon after.
Why should I even bother?
You edit code, markdowns, prompts, notes every day. Small speedups compound. A few days of learning for a lifetime of productivity boost, fun, and glory.
Is it video lessons?
No. Every lesson is a hands-on exercise with written theory explanation. If you want to dive deeper into how it works under the hood, we also provide a list of books, videos, and other complementary resources you can familiarize yourself with if you're interested. But they are not required for learning how to type with Vim motions and use them efficiently.
But I can learn this for free.
You can. But with a curated step-by-step plan, you're less likely to quit, you will progress faster, and you will lock in the right fundamentals that every other advanced Vim skill builds upon. It's much more difficult to learn from scattered YouTube videos than from a single place with all the theory built into exercises you can do daily, fully online.
I don't write code anymore. AI does it for me.
Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex all ship with a Vim mode, so the motions carry straight over to your prompts and configs. And you still edit text every day - notes, markdown, configs, commit messages, files over SSH on a remote box. Vim makes all of it faster.
I tried Vim before and quit.
This course gets you through the fundamentals as fast as possible, so you can use Vim at work without the slowdown that killed it last time. Past the fundamentals (days 0-4), it's downhill.
I already use VS Code / Cursor / JetBrains. I'm fast enough.
Vim motions do not replace an IDE that you already use - they run inside all of them. You don't have to switch your editor to Vim. Learning Vim motions is about upgrading how you type. Less mouse. Fewer keystrokes. Any IDE.
I already know the basics. Is this too beginner?
Our course is designed to start at the basics - for people who never touched Vim. But we keep going into more advanced concepts such as text objects, macros, registers, and the motions that most self-taught users never pick up.
