From the linked page:

> Why use Vim Online Editor?

> 1. Because you love vim.

> 2. Because you don't have access to vim somehow (maybe you're on a Chromebook that doesn't allow access to the system)

> 3. Especially if you're on Windows and you still want to use vim.

> 4. Because you want a notepad of some sort in the browser, and you want to use vim bindings instead of normal notepad.

Point 3 I don’t quite understand though. Last time I was using Windows, several years ago, I was perfectly able to run gVim on it. I can only imagine that with the subsystem for Linux and other things that have been added since then, surely it has only become easier to run Vim.

Last time I was actively using Windows was in the late WinXP / early Win7 era. But I don’t see why Win 10 / 11 would make running Vim difficult.

I do agree with all of the other points though.

As a heavy vim user, I've literally been using gvim.exe every day on Windows for the past decade

neovim also has windows builds now, daily driver for me.

To see if it's possible.
