Why I love Vim Motions?
- More productive
- More money, as a side effect of being more productive
- Smarter, because being more productive leads to faster learning and applying what you learn
- Flex: I look like a "G" in front of standard mouse clickers, VsCoders
Project Motive:
This is a certification project I get to do, for the course I am following. The project, is to make a tribute page. I started to think: "What would everyone else do?", and did the exact opposite. I spent like 10 to 20 minutes to just think of a unique idea, something nobody else would do.
This Project is built with:
- HTML
- CSS
Vim Motions Cheatsheet:
Honestly, if you do not use Vim, you are an idiot. It will make you move 1.5 - 3x faster, permanently. It is an upfront investment, but it is definitely worth it.
