Latest reviews
- (2023-11-25) Kelvin Nava: Wow, this is so great. Google Docs is more comfortable with this extension.
- (2023-11-06) Luciano Panepucci: Needs work but is very responsive. The paragraph object is missing for things like vip or vap, also big word W for moving or viW and lots of other basic features. I'm not against paying but my main concern is that the extension has access to documents contents. This is obviously required but having the extension open source would be nice.
- (2023-10-04) Tyler McCoy: I disliked it because it only lasts 14 days before being required to pay money. They should allow default configuration to free users but if they want to ask for money they can allow extra options for paying users to customize the config
- (2023-09-25) Joey Carney: Actually pretty cool, and works well. I got rid of it because it's paid. At the moment it doesn't offer huge advantages over the native Google Docs commands, but I would definitely keep it if it wasn't paid. Seems like the developer is staying active and working on it. Hopefully there'll be an open source version in the future.
- (2023-09-22) S T: Really excited that this is being handled; I've reached out to the developer and they're very responsive and already working on they bugs and adding feedback to the backlog. Keep up the good work - this is a killer extension!
- (2023-08-12) Luke Terheyden: It's okay, it has the basics right. It has some bugs, e.g. `{` and `}` don't jump to the next paragraph (in the Vim sense, a blank line), only the next carriage return (a Google Docs paragraph). The cursor can be placed beyond the end of the line (probably a browser limitation though). I don't think you can set custom keymaps or customize in any way, as of this writing. It feels like it's just some JavaScript hooks running on top of Google Docs. I don't mind paying for software, honestly, but it's a little premature, in my opinion, to ask for money for this extension: it's not in the FOSS spirit of Vim, but also this extension is just not nearly at the same quality level as Vimium, Wasavi, or Firenvim (all of which are free IIRC and deserve payment / donations). So I'm taking off another star for this.

- (2023-06-29) Andy Moran: It’s not yet feature complete, but it offers a lot of the core Vim functionality you’ve come to know and love as a starting point as it continues to be built out. Victor has been awesome in my dealings with him, and has responded promptly to any questions and issues I’ve had!
- (2023-06-20) Olha: Works great, is not laggy
