In this tutorial, I will cover the basics of navigating through a file in vim. Of course, you will definitely need to practice this to get good at it, but I can assure you that it will be worth it. The following commands were covered in this tutorial:
h - Move cursor left
j - Move cursor down
k - Move cursor up
l - Move cursor right
i - Switch to insert mode
ESC - Switch to command mode
:q - Quit vim
:q! - Quit vim (ignoring unsaved edits)
:w - Save document
:wq - Save document and quit vim
