Summary
TechBrunch returns with a Vim Edition: a small, relaxed gathering for Vim users to talk shop over brunch at the Beltempo restaurant inside Hotel Metropolitan Edmont in Iidabashi. The morning centers on practical show-and-tells, with attendees walking through their .vimrc or init.lua configurations, swapping plugin recommendations, and trading tips for more efficient modal editing. The event welcomes a broad range of editor users: seasoned veterans, newcomers to modal editing, Neovim and Evil users, people relying on Vim emulation in other applications, and anyone who has ever struggled to figure out how to exit. It is deliberately kept intimate, so attendees should expect a conversational table rather than a large meetup. First-time attendees who RSVP and are confirmed on the attendee list get their meal for free. RSVP is also important for finding the group, since the organizers may relocate within the venue.
