Ask HN: Did anyone write a book in Nano?
I wrote a manuscript in vim a couple Novembers ago, for NaNoWrimo. I used a couple plugins, primarily Goyo [1] to add some margins, but otherwise, yeah, plain vim.
I don't think it was really any more productive than my current workflow in Obsidian. Vim keybindings are more useful for editing than for writing (and for editing code in particular, where the changes you're making are much more structured). Also, while the extra features afforded by Obsidian don't really make a difference during the writing process, I find they're really useful for outlines and other preliminary work, which is something of a point against a vim-only workflow unless you want to use vimwiki [2] or something.
Granted, Obsidian is still a markdown-based tool, so there's still some level of minimalism going on there, but by that point we're really discussing markup vs word processors, which is its own conversation—and to my mind, a much more important one. I much prefer working in markup than in a rich text editor, because plain text is easy to edit and process through the terminal, and because it lets me separate style choices from content.
I find that the markdown live preview that editors like Obsidian and Typora provide (and which vim doesn't) is a really nice compromise between a slick composing experience and the technical affordances of markup. Between that and Obsidian's hypertext features, I think I'll stick with Obsidian for the foreseeable future.

is it possible to read books in vim?
Maybe https://github.com/junegunn/goyo.vim could be useful then.

SQLite WASM in the Browser Backed by the Origin Private File System
I haven't maintained a Vim config in a few years now (more of an Emacs man now), but I do remember using Goyo in college. Looking back at it, I think it might scratch your itch as far as Vim plugins go, it even allows you to resize the area on the fly.

UPDATE: no-neck-pain.nvim - Dead simple plugin to center the currently focused buffer to the middle of the screen.
I went from https://github.com/junegunn/goyo.vim to https://github.com/folke/zen-mode.nvim and now this
Can't see https://github.com/junegunn/goyo.vim mentioned anywhere in this thread.

BlindVim, my first simple plugin.
This feels real similar in concept to limelight and goyo. Nice! 👍🏻
-
Show me your well organized vim config.
goyo and limelight are also really useful plugins that work well together to create a nice environment for writing.

Suggest me some startup screen plugins
I'm currently using alpha.nvim (https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim). It tries to be more generic than the others, to the point it can recreate most of the other popular ones. It even has template for for example the dashboard layout. startup-nvim (https://github.com/startup-nvim/startup.nvim) seems to do a similar thing, although I dont' have experience with that one. The only other one I've tried before is the classic vim-startify (https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify), which is a little older I think and locks you into its layout.

is there is a session manager plugin ?
Just for posterity since every other session plugin has been posted, vim-startify has autosave and autoload support

Do you use vim-startify, or used to? Send me your configs
I am working on a, from scratch, rebuild of the ever classic vim-startify for neovim with a focus on extreme extensibility. I also want it to be as much of a drop in replacement as possible, and don't want to write myself into a corner with some design choices I'm taking
-
Remember open buffers per project?
https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify has also means to store sessions with command 'SSave'.
-
What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
might be well known but i like https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify easy to use start screen with most recently used lists of files, etc.

Finally found a good replacement for Startify (mini.starter)
I was trying to center the startup screen for vim-startify and went down the rabbit hole of looking for a different startup plugin. My main use is that I want to start my already existing startify sessions as everything else I do with Telescope. I found mini.starter and it is working exactly as I want it to so I thought I would share for others that look for something similar. Don't get put off by the many components of the plugin. They are not loaded if you don't need them. Here is my a screenshot and my config for a minimal, centered, startup:

One more nvim config with fennel, I am glad I moved (from vimscript)
I do restart vim when it's impossible to evaluate modified stuff in place to see the result immediatelly. Sometimes, when I have lots of buffers opened, need all of them and need to restart, a save a session with Startify :SSave command. On restart I press one key and have everything back.

Favourite files plugin
I use Startify, which does a good job with sessions and gives you the ability to create bookmarks and display them on the start screen. My mappings to create a new window or tab always end with invoking Startify, so it is like the new tab screen that web browsers have, showing bookmarks and recent files.
