I started using vim today

Not sure if I'm gonna ditch GUI IDEs and editors completely, but I think I'll try using only vim for a day or two, see how it goes

You are not going to ditch IDEs no matter what (unless you quit programming)

@10Dev and that is the last time we hear from you. Because you couldn't find the logout button...

Vim is great but depending on what you're working on, it probably won't be a good alternative to a proper IDE. Most IDEs have a vim plugin so you can get the best of both worlds!

it's a nice way to say "I have VIM on full-screen and I have no idea how to exit it and use my IDE again; I estimate that could take a day or two"

Vim is great text editor, like vs code, atom or sublime (but faster and more fun).
It's not an IDE though, unless you add ton of plugins to it.

Use vim extension on your favorite IDE, then you got best of both worlds

i think a day is not enough, like any other stuff you switch from what you are accustomed to use. tried that too and it was not worth it, because i need productivity and get shit done. another example would be when i switched to 60% keyboard, struggled for 2 months, now it is awesome.

my point is that some things work out, some not. good luck.

@LameCode20 speeds up your code navigating and editing, deleting everything in bracket is as simple as di{
