Now that I have put Rideminder on break. I am starting a few new projects:
- started a Django Blog project
- started a Squarespace website for a private practice
- worked on some coding challenges
- learning Vim
My coworker Ally told me that she was learning how to use Vim, a text editor. She pointed me to a built-in tutorial – vimtutor. All you need to do to get it started is on the command line, type:
then press <enter>. It’ll start the tutorial. It take you through basic commands of:
- moving using h, j, k, l keys
- how to edit – insert, delete, replace
- search/find
- replace
- retrieving and merging files
- etc.
The tutorial was great, but kind-of boring. So I looked and I found some fun interactive tutorials that are online that you can check out too:
Open Vim – a nice interactive shell that guides you through a tutorial with visualization
Vim Adventures – a fun game that you need to use vim commands, to play the whole game, you’ll have to play a fee though

Vim is one of those things that seems intimidating at first (because it looks like a text editor but doesn’t act like one unless you go into insert mode), but then you start messing around and it’s actually totally fine. Those tutorials look great!
