    I use nvim-tree as a file tree, telescope with find_files to quickly and fuzzy find files (although I'm considering switching to command-t as it's allegedly faster and has better sorting) and telescope-file-browser as a file browser itself. I also tend to use dirbuf.nvim as something alike emacs' dired. It works a bit poorly but gets the job done in most scenarios. I hope we get some real dired in neovim some time.
