An opinionated Vim configuration manager for the VSCodeVim extension.
Vimanco acts as a settings proxy — it reads its own vimanco.* configuration properties and pushes them into the vim.* settings that VSCodeVim consumes. This lets you manage a curated set of Vim options, overrides, and unbinds through a single, unified configuration surface.
For full details, configuration options, keybindings, and the contribution guide, visit the Vimanco Documentation Site.
- Centralized Configuration: Manage complex
vim.*settings with simplevimanco.*options. - Presets System: Choose from three curated presets (Minimal, Default, Full) to quickly configure your Vim experience. Override individual settings as needed.
- Auto-Apply: Automatically applies all
vimanco.*settings on activation and whenever you save yoursettings.json. - Status Bar Display: Shows the active preset and allows quick access to update settings with a single click.
- Reset to Defaults: Easily reset all Vimanco settings to their defaults with the Vimanco: Reset Settings to Defaults command.
- Preconfigured Defaults: Leader key mapping (
<space>), useful Insert mode bindings (jjto<Esc>), and native VS Code shortcuts delegated back so<C-c>,<C-v>,<C-f>work instantly. - EasyMotion & System Clipboard: Pre-configured and enabled right out of the box.
Vimanco configures and interacts with VSCodeVim, so VSCodeVim must be installed.
Install Vimanco via the VS Code Marketplace or the CLI:
code --install-extension vscodevim.vim
code --install-extension shoaibashk.vimanco- Vimanco: Update Vim Settings (
Ctrl+Shift+P) — Manually apply your Vimanco settings to VSCodeVim. This also runs automatically on extension activation and whenever settings change. - Vimanco: Reset Settings to Defaults (
Ctrl+Shift+P) — Reset all Vimanco settings to their default values. - Click the Vimanco status bar button (bottom-right) to quickly update your settings.
