How to use vim (key-bindings) with Visual Studio Code vim extension

Question

I just started using Visual Studio Code and think it\'s really great. Also installed the vim extension, but I\'m struggling with mapping esc to a another key.

Answer 1

Add the following to settings.json (open the Command Pallete and search for "User Settings"):

"vim.insertModeKeyBindings": [
     {
         "before": ["j", "j"],
         "after": [""]
     }
]

That should do it.
