Where and how to start learning Kakoune ???
For example, I use the sway window manager to handle tabs, so I don't want them inside Kakoune. You could also add tabs to your terminal with tmux, or use the tabs.kak plugin.

Why Kakoune – The quest for a better code editor
For those of you that use VS Code, there is a plugin[1] that follow a lot of the Kakoune grammar but doesn't try to emulate fully, opting instead for better integration with vscode. I have been using it for a few years after using Kakoune for a few and then trying and failing to make my own Kakoune emulation mode for vscode.
