Using neovim without a file tree plugin
For "neighbour" files of the current buffer I normally use :NeoTreeReveal if the file is in the main repo. (the current pwd). If not I'll use fm-nvim with ranger. I can use the Ranger %:p:h command to open the folder of the current folder in ranger without changing the pwd in vim.

fm-nvim: Neovim plugin that lets you use your favorite terminal file managers from within Neovim
I've recently released a Neovim plugin that opens a floating window with 1/5 terminal file managers called fm-nvim. It's quite small and fast as the entire plugin is written in less than 100 lines of Lua.

Very new to Vim. Having trouble with running programs
You might want “vifm” instead, it’s a vim inspired file manager for the CLI that will let you see files and open them … https://github.com/vifm/vifm
