space-vim

space-vim is a vim distribution for vim plugins and resources, compatible with Vim and Neovim.

It is inspired by spacemacs and mimics spacemacs in a high level, especially in the whole architecture, key bindings and GUI. if have ever tried spacemacs, you will find space-vim is very similar to it in user experience.

The distribution is completely customizable using .spacevim, which is equivalent to .spacemacs in spacemacs.

Features

Beautiful interface

I have written a vim colorscheme space-vim-dark based on spacemacs-dark theme. You could also try spacemacs-theme.vim.

Mnemonic key bindings

commands have mnemonic prefixes like SPC b for all the buffer commands.

Meanwhile, the whole key bindings have been well adapted for vim for the lack of great plugins similar to which-key in emacs. Most key bindings are limited to no more than two keystrokes without counting or in, e.g. SPC x d to delete trailing whitespaces.

For different language layers, , , as default in space-vim, can be seen as the major-mode prefix in spacemacs.

Lean and mean

No nonsense wrappers, free from being bloated.

For whom?

• the novice vim users
• the vimmers who pursuit a beautiful appearance
• the users using both vim and spacemacs

If you have been a vimmer for quite a while, just pick out the part you are interested in. space-vim is well-organized due to the layers concept, you can easily find what you want. Since some guys are interested in the statusline part of space-vim, this section has been extracted as eleline.vim.
