About Input Vim

Vim keybindings for every text input, textarea, and contenteditable element in the browser. If you use Vim, you know the pain of editing text in browser inputs - reaching for the mouse, memorizing OS shortcuts, losing your flow. Input Vim adds a lightweight Vim layer on top of any text field so you can stay on the home row. FEATURES -- Four modes - Normal, Insert, Visual, and Visual Line -- Full motion system - word (w/b/e/W/B/E), line (0/^/$), find/till (f/F/t/T), search (/term, *, n/N), document (gg/G, Ctrl+D/U) -- Operators - delete (d), change (c), yank (y) - composable with any motion or text object -- Text objects - iw, aw, i(, a{, i", a', i[, a< and more -- Count prefixes - 3w, 5j, 2dd - repeat any motion or command -- Undo/Redo - per-element undo stack independent of the browser -- Visual overlay - mode badge, block cursor, and pending command display -- System clipboard sync - optional yank/paste with OS clipboard -- Configurable - start mode, bracket matching, tab size, yank highlight, scroll jump size, always-centered mode, and site exclusions WORKS WITH -- <input> fields (text, search, url, tel, email, password) -- <textarea> elements with multiline support -- contenteditable elements (GitHub, Notion, rich text editors) SETTINGS Click the extension icon to configure: toggle on/off, start mode, bracket auto-close, tab width, clipboard sync, yank highlight, Ctrl+D/U jump size, always-centered mode, and per-site exclusion patterns. Settings sync across Chrome devices.
