# Vim Vixen |
|
|
|
Vim Vixen is a Firefox add-on which allows you to easily navigate the web by |
|
keyboard. Since version 57, Firefox has migrated to the WebExtensions API and |
|
has dropped support for legacy add-ons. Vim Vixen is a new choice for Vim users |
|
since it uses the WebExtensions API. |
|
|
|
## Getting started |
|
|
|
### Install Vim Vixen |
|
|

Vim Vixen is supported on Firefox 60 ESR. Please latest version of stable ESR |
|

|
You can install Vim Vixen from [Firefox add-ons (addons.mozilla.org)][AMO], and |
|
manage installed addon-ons on Firefox preferences `about:preferences`. |
|
|
|

After installation, you can control Firefox with vim-like keymaps. To scroll a |
|
page in the browser, press <kbd>k</kbd>, <kbd>j</kbd>, <kbd>h</kbd> and |
|
<kbd>l</kbd> keys. You can scroll to the top or the bottom of a page by |
|
<kbd>g</kbd><kbd>g</kbd> and <kbd>G</kbd>. |
|
|
|
To select a left and right of current tab, use <kbd>K</kbd> and <kbd>J</kbd> |
|
respectively. To close current tab, use <kbd>d</kbd> and to restore closed |
|
tabs, use <kbd>u</kbd>. |
|
|
|
To open a link, press <kbd>f</kbd> to enter the **follow mode** to select a |
|
link. Then you can select links by alphabetic keys. |
|
|
|

|
|

|
tab. To open command line, press <kbd>:</kbd>. |
