General overview :

• Install the vimrc support community plugin and enable it.
• Create a .obsidian.vimrc file in the root of your vault.
• Paste the contents of this gist in it. ( Note: Some keymaps require their respective plugins to be installed )
• Customize it and enjoy a superior editing expereince.

To check for all available commands type :obcommand and look at the output in the developer console ( Ctrl + Shift + i )

Note : If you have same keys bound to some action in both your obsidian hotkeys and vimrc, then remove the hotkeys using the obsidian settings
