YAML Editor during CKA Exam

Hi
I use VS Code editor in my local mechine for YAML editing during my preparation and training for CKA exam. Can I use the same during CKA examinations ?
I found it challenging to use VIM editor for YAML edits due to hidden/tab characters and it took me lot of time to fix without using VS Code editor.

  • Hi, the CNCF website provides the information you are looking for, about the resources you are allowed to use during the exam.
    As far as text editors in the Linux environment, I use both vim and nano, and I find them fairly easy to work with. Especially since the YAML indentation rule is just 2 spaces for every indentation - no TABs.
    However, there is an option to replace TABs in vim with customized spacing, if you chose to do so:
    vim.wikia.com/wiki/Converting_tabs_to_spaces
    This link is just one of the many available when researching such topic.
    Hoping that this helps.
    Regards,
