I really can't wait for this to be released. I am a little pessimistic about the Vim mode. There are countless 80 or 90% complete Vim modes in various modern editors. But the absence of a truly native feeling Vim (that last 10%) is a deal breaker for many. I'd rather see more editor developers spend time finding a solution that provides a truly authentic Vim mode instead of spending countless hours merely approaching 90% compatibility. For the people who you're selling on that Vim mode (the people who would care that your editor provides it) 90% isn't good enough. There are other ways to integrate Vim modes in your editor such as using the (inappropriately named) "Netbeans interface" which actually allows Vim to run in the background while you integrate your UI on top of it across a serializable bridge. This allows a perfect recreation of

Vim while letting you customize the application experience on top of it. Aside from that approach, there are a few faithful Vim recreations that I've discovered out of the dozens that I've tried. https://github.com/vicoapp/vico (Excellent project) http://www.viemu.com/ (Solid experience in Visual Studio) https://github.com/guillermooo/Vintageous (fairly close and getting better every day) But I don't mean to sound like such a pessimist. The progress so far looks excellent and I can't wait to try it out. Keep it up! Edit: I also notice that the logo looks like an iOS7 version of React's logo: http://facebook.github.io/react/
