Why Kakoune – The quest for a better code editor
If you are wondering why Kakoune and not Vim, the OP claims...<p>(you find following passages later in his post and they don&#x27;t reflect my opinion)<p>&gt; A design goal of Kakoune is to beat vim at its own game, while providing a cleaner editing model.<p>&gt; Kakoune manages to beat Vim at the keystroke count game in most cases, using much more idiomatic commands.<p>&gt; Kakoune provides an efficient code editing environment, both very predictible, hence scriptable, and very interactive. Its learning curve is considerably easier than Vim thanks to a more consistent design associated with strong discoverability, while still being faster (as in less keystrokes) in most use cases.
