+I'm a huge fan of vim. I've been using it since 2012 and I don't predict that
+changing anytime soon. I think the philosophy of vim motions -- a programming
+language for moving the cursor through a text file -- is incredibly powerful. It
+allows you to edit text without needing to use the mouse, which I believe is the
+main bottleneck that slows us down and breaks our "flow state". Once you get the
+hang of it, you feel as if you can code at the speed of your thoughts.
+
+After using vim for a while, I wanted a way to keep my vim configuration files
+in sync across my various machines. This is when I created my
+[vim-config](https://github.com/rsutton1/vim-config) repo (now archived) in
+2016. Now if I get a new laptop, for example, I could just pull the repo and
+run a script to move my config files to the correct place.
+
+This worked for a while, but it wasn't sufficient. Many of my vim configurations
+had dependencies on various packages, which I had to track and install
+manually each time I used a new computer.
+
+That's when I made the [devbox](https://github.com/rsutton1/devbox) repo in
+2022. This repo uses Github Actions to build a Docker container, which allows
+both the configurations and the packages to be saved into a single image. This
+means if I ever get a new laptop or start a new job, all I have to do is pull
+the container and I can start coding on day one.
+
+# Implementation
+
+I created two repos:
+
+1. dotfiles: static configuration files
+2. devbox: pulls the configuration files and installs them into a Docker
+   container.
+
+First, I archived my vim-config repo and migrated them to the tool chezmoi.
+Chezmoi is a tool for tracking static configuration files across various
+devices. It provides many features more than the quick bash scripts in my
+vim-config repo, which is why I decided to archive it in favor of chezmoi.
