TL;DR
Use tridactyl or Surfingkeys for a more thorough Vim browser experience than Vimium. Introduction video by Brodie. I’m currently using tridactyl.
Introduction
I used Vimium
for many years but tridactyl
and Surfingkeys
are another level. Their number of features and level of customization are much more than what Vimium
can offer.
Tips for Tridactyl
1. Look at Exemplar .tridactylrc
files from tridactyl/wiki to get started
Tips for Surfingkeys
1. Turn on Advanced mode
My suggest is that don’t bother with the Key mappings
shown because this table is missing a lot of keymaps. If you’re interested: my config
2. Regain focus from address bar
If you’re on a Chromium-based browser: refer to this guide.
If you’re on Firefox: refer to @rsslldnphy’s comment:
I created a bookmark with a location of javascript:() and a keyword of j - and it works.
Conclusion
If I were not using Firefox, I’d consider qutebrowser or Vieb. If you’re using Vimium, give tridactyl or Surfingkeys a try and I’m sure you’ll love it.
