Vimium - The Hacker's Browser Companion
Vimium is a free, open-source browser extension that provides keyboard-based navigation and control, bringing Vim-like productivity to your web browsing experience.
Project Introduction
Summary
Vimium is a browser extension designed for users who prefer keyboard control. It overlays the browser with powerful shortcuts that enable efficient navigation and interaction with web content without touching the mouse.
Problem Solved
For users accustomed to keyboard-driven workflows (like in Vim or other command-line tools), mouse-based web browsing can be slow and inefficient. Vimium eliminates the need for the mouse for most common browsing tasks.
Core Features
Keyboard Navigation
Navigate web pages using keyboard shortcuts for scrolling, link clicking, and element interaction.
Tab & History Management
Manage tabs, history, bookmarks, and sessions entirely from the keyboard.
Integrated Search
Quickly search within pages or use custom search engines directly from the command bar.
