About:
kindaVim brings Vim keybindings to every text input on macOS, allowing users to navigate and edit text fields system-wide using familiar Vim commands. It operates without requiring browser extensions or app-specific configurations, providing a consistent editing experience across different applications. This tool bridges the gap between modal editing efficiency and standard macOS text input fields.
Key Features:
  • System-wide Vim keybindings for all text inputs
  • No configuration required for most applications
  • Support for common Vim motions and operators
  • Lightweight background operation
Use Cases:
  • Editing text in web forms and native apps without mouse dependency
  • Maintaining Vim workflow consistency across development and non-development tasks
  • Quick text manipulation in messaging and note-taking applications
Alternatives:
  • Vimac – Focuses on keyboard navigation of UI elements rather than text editing
  • TextExpander – Provides snippet expansion rather than modal editing capabilities
