Vim: pushing built-in features beyond their limits

The situation

Searching can be an efficient way to navigate the current buffer.

The first search commands we learn are usually / and ?. These are seriously cool, especially with the incsearch option enabled which lets us keep typing to refine our search pattern. / and ? really shine when all we want is to jump to something we already have our eyeballs on but they are not fit for every situation:

• when we want to search something that's not directly there, those two commands can make us lose context very quickly,
• when we need to compare the matches.

1. Hosting/DNS - NearlyFreeSpeech - cheap, pay what you use hosting (literally could be < $1 a year)
2. Web Server - Mongoose - a no installation, no configurations, one click to run web server (nice for local development)
3. FTP - Cyberduck - will use to upload all your files to NFS
4. Editor - Visual Studio Code - will use to edit all your html, css, javascript, etc..
5. Colors - Color Cop - a nice color picker for web designers
6. Browser - Chrome - has really nice tools for web developers
7. Backup - Dropbox - a nice cloud storage app so you never lose your stuff
8. Version Control (optional for now) - Git and SourceTree - a proper version control setup [[details below](https://gist.github.
