LazyVim key mappings for JetBrains IDEs. Making IdeaVim feel like home.

Prerequisites

Required plugins from the JetBrains Marketplace:

• IdeaVim
• Which-Key

Installation

1. Download the .ideavimrc file from this repository to your home directory:

   # Unix/Linux/macOS
   curl -Lo ~/.ideavimrc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cufarvid/lazy-idea/refs/heads/main/.ideavimrc
   
   # Windows

Development

Notes and Caveats

• Not all mappings have been thoroughly tested
• Potential ctrl key conflicts: 6, b, e, f, h, j, k, l, o, r, s, v, w
  • See IdeaVim sethandler documentation

Roadmap

• Add Which-Key labels for all mappings
• Test all mappings side-by-side with LazyVim
• Compare Which-Key popups with LazyVim
• Improve Todo comments functionality

Future Considerations

Potential integrations with LazyVim features:

• Flash
• Noice
• Trouble
• Mini.diff
• Harpoon
• Outline
• Markdown Preview

Issues and Limitations

• Local leader key mappings are not currently supported by IdeaVim
• Some LazyVim features don't have direct equivalents in JetBrains IDEs
