Guidelines for sculpting your very own ~/.vimrc
.
Unlike the many so-called "distributions", "templates" or "awesome vimrc
" you can find on the web, this repository is NOT meant to be an actual vimrc
or even form the basis of your own vimrc
so don't copy it to your $HOME
and expect it to work.
The purpose of this repository is to document battle-tested best practices regarding Vim configuration. Use it as a reference, not as a starting point.
Furthermore, a vimrc
is something personal, that grows, shrinks and evolves over time, as you increase your Vim-fu and your needs change. While looking at other people's vimrc
can certainly be an interesting exercise, one should refrain himself from looking for solutions to non-existing problems.
Remember, kids... Pandajail is where pandas are sent when you use someone else's vimrc
. Don't be the vimmer responsible for this:
