neo-tree.nvim VS vim-vinegar

BTW, the default config options for neo-tree are listed here: https://github.com/nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim/blob/main/lua/neo-tree/defaults.lua

Checkout the release on github for a list of changes in this release.

I see this option available in the documentation. See "open_with_window_picker" in https://github.com/nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim. But in spite of installing nvim-window-picker, pressing w only moves to the next word in the neotree window. It does not ask me to choose a window. How can I enable things so that I can choose a window I want to open the file in?

(Neovim) neo-tree

Also you can use your file browser such as neo-tree, nvim-tree, or even netrw.

Gitsigns for signs, and neotree for file tracking

🧩 Works with any plugin. Check Show and Tell for snippets to integrate even better with plugins like neo-tree.nvim, bufferline.nvim

NeoTree: File browsing / tree

I just recently got into the "plugin frenzy", and since I was already using netrw, I ignored all the tree-style options and just installed the tpope's vim-vinegar to extend it.

Netrw + vim-vinegar works for me. In conjunction with harpoon and a bufferline and maybe vim-eunuch, it works out pretty well

I think you might be looking for netrw (:Ex brings it up). It is the default file explorer and can be used in many cool ways. There are extensions for it, like (vim-vinegar, and :help netrw is your friend :)

Plain `netrw` with a few options changed and tpope's vim-vinegar for easy access

I use Vinegar but should try Oil. https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar

Hijacking netrw to prevent disruptive "project drawer" style plugins as mentioned in the vim-vinegar readme is important to me.

When you understand the default file explorer, you'll probably appreciate https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar

ThePrimeagen suggests pv as the mapping to see the folder, but - comes from me being used to https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar some time ago. Choose your's to your liking.

Netrw, vim’s built in file explorer is pretty solid if you’re looking to understand the topology of a project. I really like the pattern of browsing the file tree in the window pane where the file will open. vim vinegar is a great plugin for refining the netrw experience and making it a little more seamless. Takes a minute to learn the keybindings, but I find it much lighter and less intrusive than nerd tree or it’s offshoots.

This one is for the vinegar workflow enjoyers. Netrw is good enough for my needs but it was missing a bit of *bling*. This plugins adds basic icon supports and custom keymappings.
