neoterm VS deol.nvim

I use Vim with neoterm, highly recommend. - guaranteed support on everything with a repl - never creates unexpected windows - every interaction is explicit

At the moment I am planning to write two modules and then start on 'mini.terminals'. I usually prioritize work based on combination of "I have some cool idea about this" and "I don't like what I am currently using". I am using kassio/neoterm for a very long time and it is quite OK for my needs.

Neovim works just fine. I use Neoterm to send-to-repl, here's what my config looks like. Your other options include vlime and slimv. I switched to neoterm because it's simple, explicit, and doesn't create unpredictable windows. Works for any other language just as well.

Using neovim + https://github.com/kassio/neoterm I have a similar, possibly simpler, workflow that doesn't require any other program (especially listening willy nilly with no authentication/authorization whatsoever) other than your normal SQL client running:

* I open a :Term window, in which I run the sql client (i.e. ":Texec sqlite\ foo.sqlite" or ":Texec mysql foo", etc)

I'm using neoterm. I like that I can use the same tech for every language + consistent keybinds. Also Slime might not support a more fringe or outdated lisp distro but a plain old VTY terminal always will.

Having gone from a stock vim to a highly modified vim and back again, here are some plugins that I find really boost my productivity:

- neoterm, for opening a REPL in a split buffer and quickly sending chunks of lines to the REPL (https://github.com/kassio/neoterm)

- fzf for faster buffer and file navigation (https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim)

- vim fugitive for good git integration (https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive)

- some other tpope plugins (surround, unimpared, commentary, vinegar)

I found Vlime to be more updated than slimv and give a smoother experience. With time I've switched to bare neoterm which I highly recommend. CL and lisps in general are designed with a text repl in mind, so this is the method that is guaranteed to work on every obscure CL distribution, and also transfer well to any other REPL-based languages.

I start terminal inside of neovim. It works really well. In this terminal, you can use gf (goto file) keybindigs, etc. It works especially well with this plugin: https://github.com/kassio/neoterm

Workflow is basically to open two windows (left with code, right with terminal) and send code from left window to right with a help of kassio/neoterm.

There are a few bugs that are still there and hinder my workflow https://github.com/kassio/neoterm/issues

I believe this is impossible to do at the moment. The closest you can get is https://github.com/Shougo/deol.nvim I think. I don't know how well it works, I've never used it.
