What is MacVim?

MacVim is a macOS port of the Vim text editor that provides a native graphical user interface while preserving Vim's full modal editing model and scripting capabilities. It integrates with macOS features including native file dialogs, the system clipboard, and platform font rendering. MacVim is maintained as an open-source project and is widely used by developers who prefer Vim on macOS.
