Vimium

Vim-style keyboard shortcuts for navigating the web.

These buttons open the developer's own site, repository or store listing in a new tab. wares.gg does not host downloads.

About Vimium

Vimium adds Vim key bindings to the browser: scroll with j and k, follow any link by typing the letters shown over it, search tabs and history from a prompt and move between tabs without the mouse. Every binding is remappable.

Strengths

  • Link hints let you click anything without touching the mouse
  • Every key binding can be remapped, with per-site exclusions

Limitations

  • Does not work on browser internal pages or on some extension pages
  • Takes real practice before it is faster than a mouse
