- Why Kakoune — The quest for a better code editor (This convinced me that modal editing is good and the things I don’t like about Vim are about Vim specifically and not about modal editing in general. I now have been using Kakoune-inspired extension Dance in VS Code for several years. Also the official documentation for Vim and Kakoune lack context and are hard to learn from; they should be more like Practical Vim command workflow - Max Shen Dev.)
