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

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.

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.

For the ambitious vim newbie

If you're relatively new to vim and find vim's settings and it's plugin names confusing, this book is a perfect match for you!

The author explains in "details" lazyvim's shortcuts, settings and default and the authors recommended plug-ins.

I was no absolute beginner for vim, but this book definitely help me memorize and learn new shortcuts. That is why I could raise my working pace a lot.

So support this guy and buy a copy yourself. 😁

this book + Lazyvim!

Have tried Neovim distributions before but could never make sense of how to use and configure the plugins, this is the missing manual, very well written with engaging and humorous style, will save you days of trying to to setup Neovim with modern ide features, Definitely worth having the book version for a searchable reference.

Finally using neovim!

It's taken a few years, and many mistakes - but this book finally got me using neovim!

Key differentiator: having easy instructions for resetting to blank slate and starting over with your config! The amount of times in the past i'd make a mistake in my configuration, and have no idea how to undo it and no confidence that i could do so without destroying everything.

Finally using vim

I've been trying on and off to use vim/neovim for my developer work, but failed to catch due to the ease of set up of VS Code.

Now i've finally switched over
