I build software and work with software teams to improve workflows, communication, and best practices. If you'd like to work together, please get in touch!
I've been using vim-mode-plus in Atom as a way to get familiar with it. If there's something I don't know how to do in vim, I can just go into insert mode (i), then I'm back in the normal text editing mode.
If I catch myself using my mouse to do something, or am doing anything that feels repetitive, I'll stop for a minute to learn how to do it smarter in Vim, then try to remember it and incorporate it into my workflow.

I did the same thing for about two weeks before switching to actual vim. It really helped me ease into things with the crutch of Atom still there.
