aerial.nvim VS nvim-treesitter-context

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!

Very cool! Sort of reminds me of treesitter-context. Any chance for compatibility? An example could be you either would disable context when something is pinned or somehow displace it other, depending on which is "on top" could be neat.

It's for context and navigation, not completions. So it wouldn't replace nvim-cmp. It probably doesn't replace anything you already have unless you are already using a winbar. It combines features of treesitter-context, symbols-outline, and a file navigator but in a different presentation.

Not quite the same thing, but arguably a better alternative : https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

For 2: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

I really like nvim-treesitter-context as an alternative for 1.

nvim-treesitter-context implements "sticky scroll" where, depending on where your cursor is placed, the top lines of your window will be replaced by the otherwise offscreen lines that declare what function you're in (e.g function test(...), the line that begins the current class (e.g. public class Student implements Person {), the variable name of the current table (e.g. local planets = {), etc.

Very different in my eyes, but I love nvim-treesitter-context. Definitely another tool in helping the brain parse code -- I think of it as helping with long range context, whereas blockman helps me focus on local context and makes scoping relationships more subconciously available.

You are looking for this: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

I have seen https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context is recommended, and it works similar. But the way the context info are displayed in AstroNvim is much nicer
