aerial.nvim VS awesome-neovim

I tried aerial.nvim the other day and it's pretty cool. Haven't tried lspsaga yet so I'm not sure if it fits the same purpose.

I am using aerial found here and I really like it except that when I press a function, it doesn't close the window. And I had thought I fixed it with

I am referring to the aerial plugin found [here[(https://github.com/stevearc/aerial.nvim)

I use https://github.com/stevearc/aerial.nvim, it knows which is the current function. I currently open the telescope display and just press "enter", but AerialPrev would work just as well.

First one could be lualine and Aerial.

I also use ]m, but it’s not a very good way to choose and move to functions quickly and with intention. Options include aerial.nvim, symbols-outline.nvim, and the new nvim-navbuddy, from the developer who made nvim-navic.

This would be amazing if i could open it in a buffer beside (or under...?) my current. Something akin to aerial.nvim.

Yup! Aerial.nvim supports man pages, LSP, treesitter, and markdown for outlining

AstroNvim is using aerial.nvim which is a great code outline plugin. It has several supported backends on top of LSP and Treesitter it also supports Man page structure and Markdown structure explicitly. We also use the API for building the breadcrumbs at the top of each window as well!

I personally don't use this functionality so I can't recommend a specific plugin, but if you search for “treesitter”/“tree-sitter” in this list, you will find several of them:

Does the community have a central repository of all plugins? I’ve used both this repo and neovim craft. If the latter creator has exposed the data via api that’s a fantastic plugin idea.

I like the poster you made, and I think this can definitely help people who first creating their config :) Did you submit it to the big-list yet?

> I'm using vim for a long time now, but recently I heard that neovim is noticeably faster. Is that true?

Yes; of course, YMMV. Even if you use Neovim just like Vim, it's snappier—the refactor resulted in 30% less code.

> Have most folks switched to neovim by now? Should I care?

There's two broad groups. Users who have been using Vim for like 20 years and they have a configuration they like and see no reason to change.

The other group wants all of the new hotness of Language Server Protocol, tree sitter, everything's asynchronous, there's a proper API and lots of new plugins that wouldn't be possible using Vimscript, for the most part.

Check out https://neovim.io/doc/user/vim_diff.html#nvim-features for details.

Being a Vim (now Neovim) user for close to 20 years, Neovim has attracted lots of new people to Vim-style editors and they've brought lots of energy. There's also been quite an influx of VS Code users.

Neovim is not an IDE, but it can support many IDE-like features via plugins written in Lua. There are several Neovim distributions, which you can install quickly and play around without committing to anything [1]. LunaVim, LazyVim and AstroVim are popular Neovim distributions.

It's important to understand that your existing .vimrc will Just Work if you want to start with that.
