Vim keybindings for the whole web — and why they are free
Motions, link hints, a which-key leader menu, caret browsing, and in-field editing — the whole Vim layer, on every plan.
If you live in Vim, leaving its motions behind every time you open a browser tab is a small daily papercut. HotKeyNavigator brings the keybindings you already know to every website — and it is on the free plan.
Motions and link hints
Scroll, jump, and move around a page with familiar Vim motions. Link hints overlay short labels on every clickable element, so you follow any link or press any button by typing its hint — no reaching for the mouse, no tabbing through the whole page.
A command palette for everything
A fuzzy command palette puts every action you have mapped one search away. Start typing, narrow to the action you want, and run it — the same muscle memory as a fuzzy finder in your editor.
- Vim motions and link hints on any page.
- A fuzzy command palette over all your shortcuts.
- Both included free — no upgrade required.
Now a full editing layer
The navigation basics were just the start. Vim mode now adds a which-key leader menu that pops up every action you can run, caret browsing with a real cursor you drive with hjkl, w/b, f-to-char, marks, and jump history, and — when you opt in — true NORMAL/INSERT/VISUAL editing inside text fields, including rich editors like Gmail. Every key is remappable and individually disablable, with conflict detection.
Keyboard-first people are the ones we built this for, so the whole Vim layer is free for everyone.
