Description from store
VimMotions brings Vim-style keyboard navigation and editing to text fields across the web. It lets you move and edit text in input boxes, textareas, and contenteditable fields using familiar Vim motions like h, j, k, l, w, b, 0, A, and more. If you're a Vim user, this extension brings that familiar modal editing experience to everyday browsing and web apps.
With VimMotions, you can navigate text with minimal keystrokes, switch between insert and normal mode, and use commands like "i" to insert, "A" to append to the end of a line, or "b" to jump to the beginning of a word. It's a great way to edit emails, comments, and blog posts quickly without reaching for the mouse or relying on arrow keys.
Current supported keybindings include:
i to enter insert mode
a to insert after the cursor
A to append at the end of the line
` (backtick) to return to normal mode
h, l to move left and right
j, k to move up and down in multi-line fields
w to jump to the next word
b to jump back one word
0 to move to the beginning of the line
The extension works on most standard text inputs and contenteditable elements. It is currently in alpha and being actively developed. Support for virtual DOM-based editors like Google Docs and VS Code-style environments is planned in future releases.
Known issues include inconsistent behavior in contenteditable fields, especially with blank lines or unusual HTML structures. Gmail and similar complex editors may have limited or unreliable support in this version.
If you love Vim and want to bring its editing power into your browser, VimMotions is a lightweight and intuitive way to get started. Install it and start editing the web with muscle memory you already have.
