Remember the good old days of Vim editor? While a flamewar between supporters of different editors is out of scope for this post, you need to give credit to Vim for the excellent tutorial package it shipped with — vimtutor.
Cut to present — Sublime Text is one of the popular editors out there, it is so easy that you don't even need to learn its features/shortcuts before starting to feel productive with it. My day was made when I discovered the multi-cursor editing feature of Sublime Text.
I searched the internet to find something that could teach me Sublime Text's ninja powers as vimtutor did earlier for Vim. Not then, but now that I know Sublime's little secrets, I thought of taking this opportunity to give back to the community.
Created as a Package Control plugin, once installed, the course can be started using pre-configured key combination Ctrl+Alt+K or via command palette. It comes with 6 different modules detailing commands, shortcuts, and features.
To download it from Package Control, do the following:
Cmd+Shift+P to bring command palette in front and type: Package Control Install. Search for Sublime Tutor package and select and install it once it appears.Give it a try and if you find an issue, please open an issue on Github for it. I'll be happy to receive your feedback on this.
Sublime Tutor just got Product Hunted! It reached #1 on Product Hunt.
