Vim has been the editor of choice for power-developers for decades, but it's always had an ethos of being hard to learn and harder to configure.

No More!

The LazyVim distribution has crafted a delightful and powerful out-of-the-box experience that is on par with any modern IDE. Configuration is either unnecessary or simple.

That takes care of the "configuration" problem, but in order to use LazyVim effectively, you must first know how to use LazyVim.

This book was written for developers who want to ramp up on modal editing with Neovim. It is approachable and digestible, but most of all, it is comprehensive. It collects tips and tricks gained from over two decades of using Vim, and is written with the gentle humour Dusty Phillips brings to all his work.


With this product lising, you are purchasing a .zip file containing both the epub and pdf versions of LazyVim for Ambitious Developers.

You will get a ZIP (24MB) file

Very well written book

For someone who wants to get into the world of NeoVim and its plug-ins, the entry point is confusing and there is too much to figure out and understand. This books gives a clear picture of neovim and its plug-ins ecosystem and prepares someone to be comfortable in using and tweaking the setting. Highly recommended.

You see, it's all very clear to me now. The whole thing. It's wonderful.

Well written, clear prose, Dusty obviously proofreads his work--that's important to me. I learned a lot I didn't know about Neovim and working smarter with Git.

Chapter 19 Comprehensive Guide to Plugin Configuration finally helped me understand all the cascading behavior. It may be described elsewhere (probably in Folke's Lazy documentation) but this was the missing piece for me. I decided to buy the book based on this chapter alone.

Resurrecting *vim

This book is about nvim but enbraches all ?vi? iterations and reading it is an enriching experience.
I totally suggest to grab this book and spend time to absorb hidden tresures it contains.

Exactly what I needed

I really liked how this book talks about (1) vim/neovim and (2) Lazyvim.
(1) After (many) years using vim I still learned new things
(2) Here I learned many things that other authors seem to see as "obvious" but which are not.

Very informative and fun to read

I wanted to try LazyVim instead of VS Code and was looking for some help. I had some very, very basic knowledge about vim before but felt I needed a proper introduction again. First I tried the video but I figured that I'm not really good at visual learning so I checked out the free online version of the book. I've already worked through chapters 1 through 7 and loved it. It's most of the time an easy and always a fun read and it really explains everything important. So I decided to buy the ebook version as it's absolutely worth it.

Worthwhile, about to re-read and make notes

Well-written, complete coverage. Occasionally discursive; could be more concise. But I came across many commands that were new to me or that I'd forgotten because I'd never cemented them in memory through use.

Great resource for anyone looking to learn LazyVim

I really enjoyed this book. I have been using Neovim on and off for maybe a year and this book took me to a level where I can probably incorporate it into my daily dev workflow. Highly recommended.

Amazing step-by-step for Lazyvim

I am super happy that I bought this book. It showed me a lot of hidden Lazyvim features and speed up my workflow significantly. I highly recommend buying it.

Awesome book!

Well-written, good style, not tedious, not too much detailed, it's pretty much like a good lecture or a good and long conversation. (Just the cover is not too pretty, but don't judge the book by the cover). Totally recommended!

Excellent companion of the official LazyVim documentation

It’s a great companion to the official LazyVim documentation, providing clear and thorough explanations on many topics. I was already quite familiar with Neovim, but I still learned a lot.
