You better get used to it since selfhosting many projects involves that.
That's fair, and I can easily use it. I do it a lot when working with Docker, and handling servers at work. I just prefer a 'proper' GUI when it's something like working with a large yml file.
Also, maybe 'generator' was a bad word to use. I meant an editor. That was my bad. Another commenter suggested "Homarr" which I've set up now. There are some annoyances, such as: a category having to fill 100% of the width; or categories being just large in general. But I'll play around with it some more, see if I can't get it to be as I want.
Absolutely, using a more powerful text editing tool, or just one more user friendly, that’s a good idea! But it’s not really VIM that’s the annoying part for me, rather just having to write so much of the “same” text. Which was why I was curious about any GUI based editors for it.
But it’s still a really good idea, especially using version control for the config files.
