Question

resources available on the web are only touching on vim editor. I am new to vim and I don't want to mess with my workspace settings. How do I go about changingg or keeping esc and adding jk as an optional key binding to leave insert mode in Vim in Vscode.

Answer 1

You should change the vscode json settings.

To do that Press F2 or Ctrl+Shift+P to open vscode commands enter image description here

then you have to writte this:

"vim.insertModeKeyBindings": [
{ //exit insert mode
  "before": [
    "j",
    "k"
  ],
  "after": [
    "<Esc>"
  ]
}]

This code is mapping jk as. For more info on what you can do with vscode settings I recomen visiting vscode vim github enter link description here
