aerial.nvim VS nvim-navic

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!

This can be done using a statusline plugin like nvim-navic

Zero-depency, yes, this is not another extension of navic. It does not even depends on nvim-treesitter or nvim-lspconfig, nor do you need to register an 'on_attach' function. as long as treesitter parsers or language servers are intalled correctly, the winbar should start working out of the box

nvim-navic. This option is particularly nice because it also enables using nvim-navbuddy which I have found incredibly useful for navigating large files.

Kudos for writing your first plugin! However, that's a rather poor name choice. There's already a neovim plugin called navi (https://github.com/mattiasbonte/navi.nvim), as well as an old unmaintained vim one (https://github.com/alexvoss/navi), not to mention slight variations like https://github.com/SmiteshP/nvim-navic or https://github.com/taohexxx/navim (the latter again looking unmaintained, but the former being relatively popular).

Just like this? If yes, you can try lspsaga.nvim, nvim-navic, or barbecue.nvim.

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.

Paired with my other plugin nvim-navic this completes the breadcrumbs experience that you would typically find in an IDEs like VScode. I hope you all like it :)

I use global status line (3) and winbar. I use Nvim-navic so that the winbar shows me my current file name highlighted also shows the path and the context.

Could also be https://github.com/SmiteshP/nvim-navic

I was trying to activate some optional plugin and found out that it couldn't be enabled using the mentioned config. I checked the github repository and saw that, for example, `SmiteshP/nvim-navic` is not present there. (link to core plugins list in repo).
