Glad you found this useful @hvenry @ravicorreia π
@nikolovlazar thanks a lot. This is what I need - good from both worlds - VimVS.
If you have a problem with space+e try this:
"key": "space e",
"when": "vim.mode == 'Normal' && editorTextFocus && foldersViewVisible",
"command": "workbench.action.toggleSidebarVisibility"
},
{
"key": "space e",
"when": "vim.mode == 'Normal' && sideBarVisible",
"command": "workbench.action.toggleSidebarVisibility"
}
