spf13-vim is a curated Vim distribution bundling plugins and configuration for Vim, GVim, and MacVim. It provides plugin management via Vundle, autocomplete, file navigation, and other modern editor features, customizable through local RC files.

Use cases

  • set up a preconfigured vim for development
  • get autocomplete and file tree in vim out of the box
  • manage vim plugins with vundle
  • cross-platform vim configuration for windows linux and mac
  • quickly bootstrap a vimrc with sensible defaults

When to avoid

  • you prefer building your own minimal vim config from scratch
  • you use Neovim with Lua-based tooling
  • you need actively maintained plugin versions - the distribution is in maintenance mode
