Vim is based on the concept on **modes**.

- Command Mode - vim starts up in this mode, used to navigate and write commands
- Insert Mode - used to make changes in your file
- Visual Mode - used to highlight text and do operations to them
- Ex Mode - used to drop down to the bottom with the ':' prompt to enter commands
- Normal Mode - vim starts up in this mode, used to navigate and write commands
- Insert Mode - used to make changes in your file
- Visual Mode - used to highlight text and do operations to them
- Ex Mode - used to drop down to the bottom with the ':' prompt to enter commands

```
i # Puts vim into insert mode, before the cursor position
a # Puts vim into insert mode, after the cursor position
v # Puts vim into visual mode
: # Puts vim into ex mode
<esc> # 'Escapes' from whichever mode you're in, into Command mode
<esc> # 'Escapes' from whichever mode you're in, into Normal mode
# Copying and pasting text
# Operations use the vim register by default
