Appreciate you papa Prime changing the world and making it a better place one video at a time. As someone struggling hand issues, I remember 2 years ago when I joined a bootcamp and saw the instructor did a ci( in VS****, it blew my mind. I desperately needed it in my life but the guy was being a gatekeeper, never shared the goodness with the rest of the cohort so I started to search online for resources and found your content on vim. You've inspired me along with may others to start their vim journey, so thank you once again!
man i really appreciate these videos that you make you can not imagine how much they are valuable to new learner like my self , please don't stop what you do i will always be grateful
I’d love a longer format video (somewhere between a full stream and these videos) on plug-in making. I know others have tutorials but you’re videos are another level of entertaining
Just noticed: “your*” Anywho, Yeah I know Teej does. And don’t get me wrong I do love me a tall glass of Teej. But there’s something about Prime… he’s just got that smelly smell…. That smells… smelly.
I remember you made a similar video about these motions few years ago. Which inspired me to start using Vim. Since then, everything in my life has changed for the better. 😄
Prime you are the reason I use NeoVim. I started with your Frontend Master and now I even have it in my browser with Vimium. Loving this world en its only the first month. Thanks for improving my life. Your a true inspiration.
This is technically part 2 of the series! I am trying to make the parts so you don't have to watch them all, instead you watch what you are interested in!!! If you like this video then press the damn button already.
@@6Diego1Diego9 he has said in the past that his videos do well in morning hours and especially on Mondays or Tuesdays. I don't know how that can be the case but it's Prime so I wouldn't dare question the coconut oil god 🤣
Prime, my good man, I adore this series of videos. Nonetheless, when (after *much* trial and error) managed to install Plug (in Windows no less because on my 20.10 it simply doesn't want to install because for some reason doesn't want to work with my manually installed pip), I was left at a point where CoC was up and running but even though it did bring up suggestions, it didn't want to select the active one... nope, even inoremap or how its called work. And after tries after tries after tries, first in Linux, then in Windows, it suddenly dawned on me that all of it was an exercise in futility. Love the editor, don't get me wrong and I would SO love to use it - but if I have to spend hours and hours, depending on OS version and whatnot just to get an extension half-up-and-running in an semi unusable way, well, sorry, but eff this shit. When NeoVim obtains a proper marketplace where you simply download a single file where it must be placed in a well known beforehand directory and the whole functionality is self-contained, without depending on the presence of rust or python or whatever the hell, then perhaps I can give NeoVim another try. Until then, sorry, but VSCode offers a much more hassle-free experience. Strike the last paragraph. When NeoVim obtains a proper marketplace where I can open up a hovering window, type what I want to look for and it allows me to select an extension and downloads it and sets it up for me, then perhaps we can talk. Either this, or when there are complete-batteries-included-one-file-downloads with a complete setup incl. code completion, plugin functionality and all that jazz. /rant
3:00 :The funny part it is really .(where you can omit each ) When you use both then they are multiplied. To quote vim help "motion-count-multiplied": "If the motion includes a count and the operator also had a count before it, the two counts are multiplied. For example: "2d3w" deletes six words."
I'm just so stoked that i didn't learn Dvorak and waste my time when wanting to learn vim. I followed your Neovim from scratch video and noticed you changed Harpoons hotkeys to HTNS and I was like hold up, he is just built different, subscribe.
This was the first time I was watching your videos and halfway in I suddenly notice I'm also wearing a grey hoodie jacket with my headset on top. Immediately subscribed lol
I watched the first video and practiced for 2 weeks and re-watched the Introduction vid until I memorized everything. Lord plz help me get to the end of this series so I can be slippery as a well oiled Popsicle. The first vid has 660k views and this second one has 190k. The learning curve is steep, but I shall climb this hill of stupid until I become one of the chosen VIMagens.
Can you believe it... I am developing software for decades now. Primarily keyboard focused. After watching your Vim videos I got interested, that is a week ago. Truly loving the journey! 🙏🙏🙏
Great! Hope that this serie reach topics like configure lsp jumps (definitions, implementations) for big projects with external library's of C and C++. Having this problem right now.
Hey Prime, I really miss this tutorial / coding format :). I'd really wish if you could go back to that again! Article reading is nice, but my two cents are: This is the true cool, fun and more helpful content 😎
I like how sometimes people are like "Eversince I started using vim my life got better, I got a job, a wife, the sun shines more and I became pressident" By the way awesome video, learnt a lot with you
Hey i love your videos on vim man. One thing i'd suggest for any beginners who love their IDE's (i love my jetbrains ones) is to just downlaod the vim plugin and use with any intellij editor. I've been writing Scala, Go and now Python with vim mode, so you get all the intellij goodies + vim ease of movement. You also get 2 clipboards for copy-pasting (one vim local and ctrl-c or cmd-c for outside the ide). Regards from Chennai, India.
Oh gosh man i discover your YT a couple day ago searching some info on vim and now you are on my top 3 contenta creator(i Hope my english it's not too bad 😅) thankyou for all this precious info
2 minutes in and I am giving that thumb-up a little coconut oil. 3 minutes in, I hit that s-word button. Good tips mate, really really good and understandable tips. No, I am not going to buy you a car at minute 10...
Great Video. I like this series - so the older ones too... VIM is the greatest editor with fzf wow. It's really fast to find the right file if I needed. Thanks for your great content. You always pitch my day to happiness - thanks for that.
I like neovim presets. With Astronvim I started my journey and I think it's the best. It's pretty "vanilla" and easy to understand and tinker around. And it's not too overwhelmed with features and incessantly plugins
Man, sometimes I watch your videos and everything is cool and up to a point and I sit there seriously listening and then you make some stupid sex joke and I just lose it. Thank you so much.
Thanks a lot for putting in these amazing guides and introducing vim to me. I hopped onto the vim train to be vim-diesel and instantaneously fell in love with vim. Its great fun doing Parkour but in the files. However I saw John Carmack on a podcast and he was heavily stressing upon use of debugger in vscode or other ide's I wonder if there is such possibility in vim. I m new to the world of programming and I would hate to migrate to vscode down the line.
You can do debugging in vim / neovim. Setup is quite a bit more involved than in vscode though. Look into DAP (Debug Adapter Protocol) and LSP (Langauge Server Protocol) for Vim or Nvim, whichever you are using. You will also be setting things up specifically for whatever language you are using.
For the work he's doing Game development and VR you really need custom debugging software to work efficiently. Don't hate switching tools, use them when it makes your day better.
I'm glad I decided to watch because I'm a huge user of forward and back in the line and I figured there was a way to go again without using the same key commands, but I guess I'm dumb and lazy sometimes I didn't even check the help haha. After this though, when I use something a lot, I'm going to make sure and read the manual so I'm not missing out on any major features like the repeat jump!
I started VIM because of these video series. I hated you on day 1, but now I kinda like you, because I got a bit faster. Still cant risk to use it on my work project though. Can’t wait to see 3rd video ❤️
Prime, thanks for everything. Your energy is contagious. You mentioned using DVORAK. Do you re-map the vim motion keys (hjkl) or do you leave them where DVORAK has them laid out?
@@ThePrimeagen I noticed in another video you are using a Kinesis Adv360. So am I. Looking at your ZMK firmware fork on GitHub, I suspect you are not using the keymap committed there. Care to share what firmware fork you are using? Just curious as the Windows software re-mapping is all kinds of broken and the DVORAK keycaps Kinesis sells are not mapped to my liking either. I'd love to know how your keyboard is configured. Particularly for the keys along the bottom row and along the far left and right sides.
As a colemak user. You really got me dvorak one.😂😂 I am using nvim as full time still love to watch your video to learn small small details I missed in my learning. Some time big one too😂 Are you using dvorak on kinesis? 🤔
Hey ThePrimeaGen, I've been following your work and noticed that you haven't used 'Ranger', the command-line file manager. I'm also a big command-line enthusiast, and I think Ranger could be a significant upgrade for your file navigation. It integrates vim keybindings and offers a user-friendly interface. Using Ranger might also provide new insights for the development of your projects like Harpoon. Cheers, Patryk (a fan of your work)
Hey @ThePrimeagen, the link to your VIM RC video does not work. It says it is private. Any chance of making it public? ... just trying to follow along your vim playlist to suck a little less at my editing skills 😉
Wow this new series is pure gold. Good editing btw. I was watched your old series and still practicing it. Still not fast, but I feel more efficient to code. I use Neovim with astronvim config. Is it bad for the future?
I like Vim because Teej told me to
Ahh Yes

yeah! this is just the redo-ing of a series. i think it is best to modernize them a bit :)

What happened to the Vim RC video?
That Luke Smith reference got me.
who? you mean vim diesel?
4:35 Okayu!
Thanks for these. Super helpful.
I think you've picked a nice set of useful default motions to learn.
That Vimdiesel joke with Luke was top tier.
I don't know why I still watch these videos even though I've been using Vim for over a decade. Like 13 years at this point.
3:00 :The funny part it is really .(where you can omit each )
When you use both then they are multiplied.
To quote vim help "motion-count-multiplied":
"If the motion includes a count and the operator also had a count before it,
the two counts are multiplied. For example: "2d3w" deletes six words."
yeah... but that's just crazy talk at that point
Love the Luke Smith reference that guy is hilarious
I was dying!
Vim Diesel, the goat
i thought it was funny
I'm just so stoked that i didn't learn Dvorak and waste my time when wanting to learn vim. I followed your Neovim from scratch video and noticed you changed Harpoons hotkeys to HTNS and I was like hold up, he is just built different, subscribe.
Vim is probably the most powerful tool for working with text.
Thank you so much, man!

the vim rc video is now in private
Started using nvim bcs of your old series about it. VS code is still goin but only for refactoring. Thanks for the Harpoon its a great tool.
Vim is a game that is legally playable during working hours
just a heads up - the link to the vimrc file referenced multiple times is marked as "private"
great video series!

yeah how do we see that vid ?
