## Introduction
VimWiki is a personal wiki for Vim -- a number of linked text files that have
their own syntax highlighting. See the [VimWiki Wiki](https://vimwiki.github.io/vimwikiwiki/)
for an example website built with VimWiki!
For the latest features and fixes checkout the [dev branch](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/tree/dev).
If you are interested in contributing see [this section](#helping-vimwiki).
With VimWiki, you can:
- Organize notes and ideas
- Manage to-do lists
- Write documentation
- Maintain a diary
- Export everything to HTML
To do a quick start, press `<Leader>ww` (default is `\ww`) to go to your index
wiki file. By default, it is located in `~/vimwiki/index.wiki`. See `:h vimwiki_list`
for registering a different path/wiki.
Feed it with the following example:
```text
= My knowledge base =
* Tasks -- things to be done _yesterday_!!!
* Project Gutenberg -- good books are power.
* Scratchpad -- various temporary stuff.
```
Place your cursor on `Tasks` and press Enter to create a link. Once pressed,
`Tasks` will become `[[Tasks]]` -- a VimWiki link. Press Enter again to
open it. Edit the file, save it, and then press Backspace to jump back to your
index.
A VimWiki link can be constructed from more than one word. Just visually
select the words to be linked and press Enter. Try it, with `Project Gutenberg`.
The result should look something like:
```text
= My knowledge base =
* [[Tasks]] -- things to be done _yesterday_!!!
* [[Project Gutenberg]] -- good books are power.
* Scratchpad -- various temporary stuff.
```

## Installation
VimWiki has been tested on **Vim >= 7.3**. It will likely work on older
versions but will not be officially supported.
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have these settings in your vimrc file:
```vim
set nocompatible
filetype plugin on
syntax on
```
Without them, VimWiki will not work properly.
#### Installation using [Vim packages](http://vimhelp.appspot.com/repeat.txt.html#packages) (since Vim 7.4.1528)
```sh
git clone https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki.git ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/vimwiki
```
#### Installation using [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen)
```sh
cd ~/.vim
mkdir bundle
cd bundle
git clone https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki.git
```
#### Installation using [Vim-Plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug)
Add the following to the plugin-configuration in your vimrc:
```vim
Plug 'vimwiki/vimwiki'
```
Then run `:PlugInstall`.
#### Installation using [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim)
Add `Plugin 'vimwiki/vimwiki'` to your vimrc file and run:
```sh
vim +PluginInstall +qall
```
#### Manual Install
Download the [zip archive](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/archive/master.zip)
and extract it in `~/.vim/bundle/`
Then launch Vim, run `:Helptags` and then `:help vimwiki` to verify it was
installed.
## Basic Markup
```text
= Header1 =
== Header2 ==
=== Header3 ===
*bold* -- bold text
_italic_ -- italic text
[[wiki link]] -- wiki link
[[wiki link|description]] -- wiki link with description
```
### Lists
```text
* bullet list item 1
- bullet list item 2
- bullet list item 3
* bullet list item 4
* bullet list item 5
* bullet list item 6
* bullet list item 7
- bullet list item 8
- bullet list item 9
1. numbered list item 1
2. numbered list item 2
a) numbered list item 3
b) numbered list item 4
```
For other syntax elements, see `:h vimwiki-syntax`
## Key bindings
### Normal mode
**Note:** your terminal may prevent capturing some of the default bindings
listed below. See `:h vimwiki-local-mappings` for suggestions for alternative
bindings if you encounter a problem.
#### Basic key bindings
- `<Leader>ww` -- Open default wiki index file.
- `<Leader>wt` -- Open default wiki index file in a new tab.
- `<Leader>ws` -- Select and open wiki index file.
- `<Leader>wd` -- Delete wiki file you are in.
- `<Leader>wr` -- Rename wiki file you are in.
- `<Enter>` -- Follow/Create wiki link.
- `<Shift-Enter>` -- Split and follow/create wiki link.
- `<Ctrl-Enter>` -- Vertical split and follow/create wiki link.
- `<Backspace>` -- Go back to parent(previous) wiki link.
- `<Tab>` -- Find next wiki link.
- `<Shift-Tab>` -- Find previous wiki link.
#### Advanced key bindings
Refer to the complete documentation at `:h vimwiki-mappings` to see many
more bindings.
## Commands
- `:Vimwiki2HTML` -- Convert current wiki link to HTML.
- `:VimwikiAll2HTML` -- Convert all your wiki links to HTML.
- `:help vimwiki-commands` -- List all commands.
- `:help vimwiki` -- General vimwiki help docs.
## Changing Wiki Syntax
VimWiki currently ships with 3 syntaxes: VimWiki (default), Markdown
(markdown), and MediaWiki (media).
**NOTE:** Only the default syntax ships with a built-in HTML converter. For
Markdown or MediaWiki see `:h vimwiki-option-custom_wiki2html`. Some examples
and 3rd party tools are available [here](https://vimwiki.github.io/vimwikiwiki/Related%20Tools.html#Related%20Tools-External%20Tools).
If you would prefer to use either Markdown or MediaWiki syntaxes, set the
following option in your `.vimrc`:
```vim
let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/vimwiki/',
\ 'syntax': 'markdown', 'ext': '.md'}]
```
## Getting help
[GitHub issues](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/issues) are the primary
method for raising bug reports or feature requests.
Additional resources include the IRC channel [#vimwiki](https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#vimwiki) on Freenode
([webchat](https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#vimwiki), also synced to Matrix/Riot: `#freenode_#vimwiki:matrix.org` and [Telegram](https://t.me/joinchat/JqBaKBfWs04qNVrp5oWcMg))
or post to the [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/vimwiki).
## Helping VimWiki
VimWiki has a lot of users but only very few recurring developers or people
helping the community. Your help is therefore appreciated. Everyone can help!
See [#625](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/issues/625) for information on how you can help.
Also, take a look at [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/blob/dev/CONTRIBUTING.md) on the `dev` branch.
