I'm surprised they don't even mention vimtutor. It's preinstalled on every machine with vim (to the best of my knowledge). This seems like a cool project, but might as well give a shout-out to the original concept.

vimtutor is to Babbel what this is to duolingo. Many will prefer learning through a game but some want a more textbook approach. Honestly, anything to get more people on vim and emacs is a good thing in my book!

It took me half a minute to realize that you probably meant "vimtutor is to VIM master what Babbel is to duolingo".

Isn't it exactly the same thing? If a:b=c:d then a:c=b:d.

The problem is that it's not the relationship between vimtutor and Babbel that you're comparing to the relationship between vimmaster and Duolingo.

Thats exactly what I meant to say. Thanks!
