Yes, Blink gives you a local shell with some tools (not extendable), including Vim. It is even possible to mount a remote repository (we call it a Bookmark), and edit locally.

Give it another chance if you want to, I’m always happy to help.

Is Blink’s shell different from something like iSH which gives you a local shell inside an Alpine Linux VM? Is it some kind of native iOS shell or is it also a Linux VM of some kind?
