VimNinja: Interactive Vim Tutorial and Game από Jai Pandya

VimNinja is an interactive Vim tutorial in your browser. Learn Vim motions, commands and text objects a few minutes a day, on a real Vim engine from your first keystroke, then keep them with daily practice and a Vim golf game.

Free, no account, no terminal. It works offline.

The course: 82 short lessons
From your very first keys (i, Esc, h j k l) to words, finds, operators, text objects, visual mode, registers, macros and :g. Each lesson is a few cards: the idea, a demo the engine plays on real code, an exercise you solve on real code, and a quick recall from memory. A few minutes each.

Daily practice
Every command you practise gets a memory schedule. When one starts to fade, it comes back in the Daily 5, a short round of fresh goals on real code. The toolbar button shows how many are due.

Vim golf, one hole a day
Edit the text into the target in as few keystrokes as you can. Par is the shortest known solution, and your result copies as a row of coloured squares, one per key.

A real Vim engine
Motions, operators, counts, text objects, registers, the dot command, macros, visual block, search and Ex commands, checked against Neovim. It reads your keys back in plain words ("change inside the double quotes") and shows a shorter way when there is one.

Reminders, if you want them
Pick a time of day, or a nudge when you come back to your computer. At most one a day, and none once today's practice is done.

Private by design
No account, no tracking, no network requests. Your progress stays in the extension on your computer.

The keys you learn work in Vim and Neovim, and in the Vim modes of VS Code, JetBrains IDEs and Zed. The full lessons, with every exercise, bosses and endless rounds, are at vimninja.com.
