Hey everyone,
I just launched BobaVim, a browser-based game designed to help you learn and master Vim motions through fast-paced challenges and races.
Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned Vimmer looking to sharpen your skills, you can play solo to train or jump into 1v1 duels to compete in real time. The game includes:
A built-in tutorial & manual
A leaderboard to track your progress
A set of handcrafted levels focused on real Vim usage
This is my small tribute to Bram Moolenaar and the amazing legacy he left through Vim. His work has had a huge impact on how I approach software and productivity.
I built BobaVim using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Go, and along the way I learned a ton about client prediction, real-time multiplayer, and concurrency. Happy to share more about the tech stack if anyone’s curious.

I’d love to hear what you think, and I’m always open to feedback or ideas for improvement!
Cheers,
Florent
