| Tip 15 | Grokking Terminal Mode |
As a Vim user, you’re used to hopping between modes that are specialized for particular tasks. You spend most of your time in Normal mode, where you can use motions to move around and operators to modify the text in a document. You can switch to Insert mode if you want to add text to a document. Visual mode is useful when you want to select and manipulate text. And Command-Line mode lets you run Ex commands such as :w and :q, as well as the search command.
In Neovim, you get a new mode to play with: Terminal mode. In this mode, you can interact with programs that run inside the built-in terminal emulator.
