Summary

This chapter covered some of the advanced workflows in Vim. We looked at code autocomplete using Vim’s built-in autocomplete functionality. We also looked at YouCompleteMe, a plugin that makes autocomplete syntactically aware. We also looked at Exuberant Ctags as a way to navigate more complex code bases. Lastly, we looked at Vim’s undo tree (the concept) and Undotree (a plugin that makes navigating the undo tree more intuitive).

In the following chapter, we’ll dive into combining Vim and version control and dealing with merge conflicts. We’ll also dive into ways to build, test, and execute code in a Vim-friendly manner.
