Acknowledgements

"First of all, I would like to thank God and the entire Free Software community, the people who have the spirit of cooperation, who love knowledge as a collective good and despite all adversities, have contributed to having quality software, tools indispensable for the transformation of our society. I especially thank Bram Moolenaar{target="_blank"} for creating this incredible software called Vim, which we learn to love every day more."

We also thank the Neovim{target="_blank"} community — the core team, plugin authors, and contributors — for pushing the boundaries of what a terminal editor can be. Neovim's innovations in Lua scripting, built-in LSP, and Treesitter integration have transformed the Vim ecosystem for the better.

This book covers both Vim and Neovim, with a primary focus on Neovim and its modern ecosystem. Whether you're a long-time Vim user or just getting started, we hope this guide helps you become more productive and enjoy your editing experience even more.
