Quick start

Press <Leader>ww (this is usually \ww) to go to your index wiki file. By default it is located in:

~/vimwiki/index.wiki

Feed it with the following example:

= My knowledge base =
    * MyUrgentTasks -- things to be done _yesterday_!!!
    * ProjectGutenberg -- good books are power.
    * ScratchPad -- various temporary stuff.

Notice that ProjectGutenberg, MyUrgentTasks and ScratchPad curly underlined. These are links in CamelCase form that do not exist yet. (CamelCase form -- capitalized word connected with other capitalized words)

Place cursor on ProjectGutenberg and press Enter. Now you are in ProjectGutenberg. Edit and save it, then press Backspace to return to parent wiki page. You should see the difference now -- ProjectGutenberg is highlighted as a link.

For the various options see :h vimwiki-options.

There is also vimwiki quick reference card available.
