Premise

Stop clicking on things! Use Vim-style shortcuts to find and select inputs or links on webpages in Chrome.

Philosophy

Typist is half type-ahead-find, half Vim/Tmux emulator. It is my attempt to add the most useful and intuitive Vim bindings to Chrome, and to do so in a way that doesn't overlap or conflict with existing shortcuts.
