Fails to mention my favourite text editor, Sublime Text which has an optional Vim mode built in (Vintage). I personally am using NeoVintageous[0] which allows you to run various ex commands and shell commands, as well as incorporating features from popular plugins such as vim-surround.
I’m still using Sublime Text because of its superior performance compared to most other editors, and I’ve recently been super impressed by the NeoVintageous plug-in [1].
It has a very complete feature parity with Vim and even implements many popular Vim plug-ins such as surround, unimpaired and abolish.
>Vim's commands and keybingings interface (not the UI).
I recently decided to finally get good at Vim, but the UI, being text-only, can be charitably described as "awful."
Solution: Sublime Text 3 with the NeoVintageous[1] plugin. Takes a beautiful, highly customizable, extensible editor and adds most of the Vim bindings. I can do all of my main development work in a gorgeous editor, and when I have to hop onto an unfamiliar machine, I'm still good at using Vim.
Check out NeoVintageous [0]. It's the continuation of Vintageous and adds some great features.
There's also https://github.com/NeoVintageous/NeoVintageous, which is a maintained fork of Vintageous with some things cleaned up, and some bugs fixed.
Shameless advertising: since the developer of Vintageous stopped maintaining it, @gerardroche and I have started a fork that we will review PRs for and occasionally work on. We've already merged a bunch of outstanding PRs, added some new features and fixed some bugs.
