Effective Vim

My advice for new vim users

• Use VSCode + VSCodeVim when possible. If you want to go hardcore, learn how to manage Vim plugins and install language servers
• Avoid using the mouse when you start. This will force you to think about how to use different shortcuts to move around more efficiently
