 This is just a bunch of dotfiles.
 
 
+## vim
+
+Plugins are managed by Vundle, which is a git submodule. After cloning the `dotfiles` repository, you have to initialize the submodule and install all plugins.
+
+``` console
+cd dotfiles/
+git submodule init
+git submodule update
+vim +PluginInstall +qall
+```
+
+Plugins can be updated with `vim +PluginUpdate +qall`.
