You can use a VIM plugin for many IDEs, including IntelliJ.

  IntelliJ (and the whole Jetbrains suite of IDEs), has one of the best VIM plugins I've seen in an editor. It's hard to say what it does differently to others, but I've rarely encountered a situation where it does something common in my workflow differently to (neo)vim. It's just pleasant to use and gets out of my way, and has a nice method of configuring whether a shortcut should be handled by the IDE or the VIM plugin when they might conflict.

    I've found multiple features and motions that do not work the same as in (neo)vim and end up breaking my flow a bit. However, I have to agree it is probably the best vim plugin I've seen anywhere, and is life saviour for me :)

  I was looking for this comment. I'm very happy with the combo of IntelliJ features and vim movement commands. The only inertia vim adds to my workflow is escaping into command mode. I have a 'jk' shortcut combo rather than escape, but if I'm hammering away I often mistime it and need to backspace out my jjkk or whatever.

  VSCodeVim (https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim) brings Vim-style input to VS Code. Good Vim input plugins can make IDEs more pleasant and efficient for users who prefer vim, neovim, vi, elvis, etc.

    Shame it falls flat whenever you open big files.
