Emulate Vim in IntelliJ IDEA

Last modified: 02 June 2021

The IdeaVim plugin emulates Vim in the IntelliJ IDEA editor, including normal, insert, and visual modes, Command-line and Ex modes, Vim regexp and configuration, and other features.

After you restart the IntelliJ IDEA, Vim emulation is enabled and the editor starts operating in the Vim mode. To disable it, deselect Tools | Vim Emulator in the main menu.
