## Disclaimer
* This is my first vim plugin and I know I am probably doing some things wrong, I would love to know how to make this better.
* This project is a work in progress
* The goal is to write as much as possible of the app in vimscript and to use the outside world as little as possible
## Slack Workspace App

Go to `Add Features and Functionality` > `Permissions`
Under `User Token Scopes` add these scopes
```
chat:write
team:read
users:read
channels:read
channels:history
groups:read
groups:history
im:read
im:history
mpim:history
mpim:read
```
