-# Vim Introduction
+# Vim Configuration
+
+Stock vim is pretty boring.
+The good news is that vim has a very comprehensive configuration file which
+allows you to tweak it to your liking.
+To make changes to vim you simply modify the ~/.vimrc file in your home
+directory.
+By adding simple commands this file you can easily change the way your text editor looks.
+
+When most people get started with vim configurations, they will simply heave
+a few massive vim configurations into their vimrc file.
+In addition to basic vim configurations, there are also hundreds of plugins
+which you can install.
+The problem with shoveling a ton of stuff in your vim configuration and installing a ton
+of plugins is that it becomes a pain maintain.
+Making simple changes is more difficult when you have to wade through a sea of gobble 
+gook configurations that you did not write.
+Also, if you have a ton of vim plugins it is difficult to transfer them to a new system
+since you have to look up how to install all the dependencies.
+
+When designing my vim configuration I decided to use the minimum amount
+configurations as possible to make vim the most usable for me.
+I feel that it is important for everyone to know exactly what every line of their
+vim configuration does. 
+This will ensure that you are only adding the things that you want and you can
+customize it for your workflow. 
+
+As a small disclaimer, I want to mention that I don't use vim as my primary
+IDE.
+When working on any large project I tend to use a JetBrains product or VSCode 
+because of the auto complete functionality and code generation.
+There are great vim configurations out there on the internet; however, most
+tend to be a bit overkill for what most people want to do.
