Answer by Jim Dennis on Stack Overflow question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1218390/what-is-your-most-productive-shortcut-with-vim/1220118#1220118

Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi.

You mention cutting with yy and complain that you almost never want to cut whole lines. In fact programmers, editing source code, very often want to work on whole lines, ranges of lines and blocks of code. However, yy is only one of many way to yank text into the anonymous copy buffer (or "register" as it's called in vi).

The "Zen" of vi is that you're speaking a language. The initial y is a verb. The statement yy is a simple statement which is, essentially, an abbreviation for 0 y$:

0 go to the beginning of this line. y yank from here (up to where?)

Introduction

C-a == Ctrl-a
M-a == Alt-a

General

:q        close
:w        write/saves
:wa[!]    write/save all windows [force]
:wq       write/save and close

Notational Conventions

This section describes the conventions used here to describe type signatures.

A [T] is an array-like value (only ever used read-only in this API), i.e., one with an integer length and whose indexed properties from 0 to length - 1 are of type T.

A type T? should be read as T | undefined -- that is, an optional value that may be undefined.

The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

(by @andrestaltz)

This tutorial as a series of videos

If you prefer to watch video tutorials with live-coding, then check out this series I recorded with the same contents as in this article: Egghead.io - Introduction to Reactive Programming.

I came across Nile for the first time in 2011

When Alan Kay presented his talk "Programming and Scaling" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9xLi0iJg1g best watch the whole talk!) The Idea to create an Approach that satisfies the users demands for personal computing in less than 10000 lines of Code, powered by DSL and other advanced concepts, seemed intriguing.

I searched the web and there was little to noting I found.

Later I found this talk in that at the end Dan Amelang also answers QA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubaX1Smg6pY.

The Problem with the STEPTS project is that you need all the parts together: Maru, Nile, Gezira etc..

Strictly Frameworks

Mobiledoc - github.com/bustle/mobiledoc-kit - framework to build editors with a standardized JSON structure
ShareDB - github.com/share/sharedb - framework to sync any JSON document using operational transforms, add real-time collaborative editing to anything else
Bangle.dev - github.com/bangle-io/bangle.dev - toolkit built for building editors, based on prosemirror

Abstracted Editors

These use separate document structures instead of HTML, some are more modular libraries than full editors

	#!/bin/bash

	#This script simulates a 2D grid of workspaces with i3.
	#all you have to do is add the next line to your i3/config

	#bindsym <keys> exec <path>/i3/workspaces.sh <direction> [move win]

	#for example,
	#bindsym Control+Mod1+Right exec ~/.config/i3/workspaces.sh right
