I can happily confirm that with iPadOS 13.4 (GM) amVim works if you go into the Keyboard settings and map the Caps Lock key to Esc. I’m using the Brave browser.

@xbtsw I had tried 1.0.0,1.9.0 and 1.11.3, none of them work.

@muammar @black-desk, for 0.17.3 you will need to install the node_modules manually for the extension.

As of 1.12.0 of vscodevim released yesterday, even chrome stopped working because of the usage of fs.readFileSync() from the extension. @code-asher .

As an immediate remedy, maybe in the coder extension repo, we should take 1.11.X as max version.
