No other text editor comes close to Vim for speed and efficiency. Make Vim the centerpiece of a Unix-based IDE, and discover new ways to work with Vim 8 and Neovim in 28 hands-on tips.

Execute tasks asynchronously, allowing you to continue in Vim while linting, grepping, building a project, or running a test suite. Install plugins to be loaded on startup with Vim 8’s new package support. Discover the future of Vim with Neovim: a fork of Vim that can be embedded within another text editor. Use Neovim as a drop-in replacement for Vim—it supports all of the features Vim 8 offers and more, including an integrated terminal that lets you quickly perform interactive commands.

Become a faster and more efficient developer with Vim at the core of your development environment.


“Even as an experienced Vim user and plugin author, I learned a lot with this book.”

–Kassio Borges, Senior Software Engineer, Zendesk, and author of the Neoterm plugin
