Uses unholy amounts of CPU making my laptop's fans spin out of control. Editing is very slow, too. Not really a good impression of vim. I'm still going to recommend people to use vimtutor to get used to vim.
Hmm, I’ll look into the CPU processing performance. Maybe it’s the menu animations? And yes vimtutor continues to be a great resource that Braam made. I mainly made this app to gamify learning the vim skills.
The amount of free trial subscription slop SaaS software has really gotten out of control. The gall people have to attempt to sell a subscription to something like this is something else.
I've wanted something like this for quite a while. I'm such a "basic" vim user, despite the fact that I'm 20 years into it... I do everything in INSERT mode, like a pleb. These might actually help me start using vim as it was intended to be
My only criticism is, could there be a tutorial mode? There's nowhere to actually walk you through any of the steps, the "teaching your cursor to walk" thing doesn't, to my knowledge, actually teach you - you have to figure it out for yourself, it just tells you how much worse you did than the bot.

I assume you're not the creator of vimgolf so I'll leave this here for source reference
Vimgolf.com is another great way to learn Vim. I created Vimgolf.ai mainly to challenge users by comparing their score against bot entries.

I get a Forbidden white screen in the vim "window" and that's that
Thanks for the feedback! What browser are you using? Sometimes the containers also don’t work properly with certain VPNs.
Could be it, Firefox w/ Mullvad on Linux. Gets a 403 on the second /session call, first one is a 302.
Thank you, investigating this
Can you add Helix golf support?
I’ll look into it! Definitely worth pursuing
