vimrc

A working vimrc file for programmers.

I've been a Vim user for more than a decade. It's a powerful editor available for most of the major operating systems. Simplicity and configurability are two of the prime reasons for its popularity.

Although feature-rich, a default out-of-the-box installation of Vim may not prove too useful for serious users. It's true power can be realized only when it is configured properly and the right plugins are installed (there are a lot).

This package includes a vimrc file along with some of the most popular plugins. It can be used to have vim configured for most purpose, especially after a fresh installation. It makes it easy to add other plugins too. I'd recommend to go through the comments inside .vimrc at least once to make the most of this package, and to start making your own customizations - your style of work may be different from mine, afterall.

A number of shortcuts, plugins etc. used in this are inspired from Jeffery Way's Laracasts. The video tutorials describes beautifully the different plugins, themes, configurations etc. and power of Vim editor as a whole.
