How it works
Pick the skills you want, then make small real edits in a browser Vim editor. Each skill runs two guided edits, two prompted edits, and two independent edits. Any valid edit that reaches the target text passes. Type :help in Normal mode for the current commands.
Free, no account, nothing stored. Requires a desktop browser with a physical keyboard.
