The readme is confusing: it says it wants to take the best of all text editors, calling out Vim first (note that the editors are not listed alphabetically), and specifically mentioning modal editing. But the rest of the readme looks like vanilla `PageUp` and `Ctrl+C` instead of `GG` and `yy` to me. So...is it modal or not?

Modal refers to Vim's insert and normal [and visual, etc] modes, where [almost] anything typed in insert mode is entered into the buffer, and you can [sorta] only navigate and manipulate the text from normal mode. The command examples you quote don't really have any bearing on modality.
