About Vim
I was extremely surprised I didn't set up a note about my default and OG editor of choice, vim. It is what has helped long term become very fast at typing and in general for understanding the power of just using whatever editor you are most comfortable with at the end of the day. Vim is what I used when I was editing t things on a chromebook and it is still what I am using to this day.
