Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

*NOTE* Google does not allow Vimium to run on this Chrome Web Store page and the Chrome New Tab page, by design. Sorry about that!

*NOTE* Chrome has some alarmist messaging around the permissions that Vimium needs to run. Really all it's asking for is that Vimium's javascript be loaded into every page. Don't be alarmed. Vimium never talks to any servers and does absolutely nothing with your data. Read the open source code if you're curious.

For more information about rebinding your keys and how to use many of Vimium's features, see here: https://github.com/philc/vimium/blob/master/README.md

Modifier keys are specified as , , for ctrl+x, meta+x, and alt+x respectively.

This is a great extension that I feel saves me time . I don't need to use the mouse anymore! I have spotted a very minor issue, though. -When using "Shift+X" to restore a previously closed tab, the back button (or "Shift-X") cannot be used to access that tab's specific history. It can be done when using "Ctrl+Shift+T" to restore a closed tab. Great otherwise, though!

Any chance to make AltGr works well? right now AltGr+[ will blur any input field. Otherwise, this is a very, very nice and useful extension!

With this extension installed, chrome never loads my homepage. I have to click refresh before the page loads. Definitely this extension causing the problem. Devs contact @gurpsone for more info on this bug.

This is great, In the follow links mode i would like to type the links text instead of some random letters.. just like vim.

feature suggestion: keys for zooming in and out, and to show the history of the selected tab. otherwise perfect.

Not nearly as powerful as Pentadactyl for FireFox, but if you're an original vi, or Vim user, this makes surfing on Chrome sweeeeet.

Occasionally buggy, but overall a good way to reduce mouse usage.
