Vim navigation between wrapped Lines in VSCode

Noticing that long lines might be soft-wrapped automatically, and navigating with j k would result in jumping across many soft-wrapped lines (but it is in fact a single line). VIM uses g j and g k to navigate within the lines instead.

If you want j k to be your default navigating keys through the block, one possible way is to remap it to g j g k instead. As mentioned in this Stackoverflow thread.

The key mapping for Vim extension for VSCode is done thus:

"vim.normalModeKeyBindingsNonRecursive": [
    {
        "before": [
            "j"
        ],
        "after": [
            "g",
            "j"
        ]
    },
    {
        "before": [
            "k"
        ],
        "after": [
            "g",
            "k"
        ]
    }
],

Put it in your settings.json .
