I'm learning vim right now as I use it to quickly fix something in files on a server. Recently I've been thinking of switching from my IDE to vim, but I'm interested if all the features I need are in vim or if they can be added with plugins. I develop mainly in PHP and JavaScript.

What I'm looking for is:

  • Contextual help(point on function and see its arguments from oxygen docs)
  • Code navigator(list of classes and functions in file to easily move between them)
