It is not clear which key features are missing and how they should be provided. This is a problem for almost all Vim users. Vim allows every Vim user to modify and enhance Vim according to their own needs via its built-in scripting language. The most important tool developers have is their editor. Developers can only be as good as the tools they use. This course is for advanced developers who have some Vim scripting knowledge. It teaches you how Vim can be made more powerful and easier to use.
