no-neck-pain.nvim VS sidebar.nvim

I use https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim or https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-dap-ui

Great point, it’s exactly why I added a scratchpad feature to https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim to leverage the empty side buffers as scratch pads (https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim/wiki/Showcase#side-buffer-as-scratch-pad)

If I may join the discussion on this topic, I've recently added a scratchpad feature to my plugin, which in your case, would allow you to take notes while taking notes

Thanks for the request! Would you mind submitting it to GitHub so we can further discuss it and what you’d expect? Thanks! https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim

Thanks a lot! please let me know if you need help. Feel free to open an issue to continue the discussion: https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim/issues

Speaking of your empty left terminal, [I just added this earlier today](https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim/pull/69) which only adds the side buffers when there's enough space, so if you have the plugin enabled, you don't have to worry about opening an empty window, the plugin thinks about it for you :)

Oh thanks for the reminder, I created the tags but forgot to do the release! The changelog is already there

Just did it with mini.nvim a few days ago and it works really well and pretty easy to setup! Here’s the PR link in case you want to take a look: https://github.com/shortcuts/no-neck-pain.nvim/pull/31

A file tree doesn't really provide me with any important information and I think that's the case with most people. I looked for a plugin that would help me build my own sidebar and I discovered sidebar.nvim. It isn't the most actively developed plugin out there, but I haven't ran into any issues either. The plugin basically allows users to build a sidebar similar to how lualine builds statuslines.

Maybe you can use ldelossa/litee.nvim or sidebar-nvim/sidebar.nvim

I'm not sure, and I'd like to know myself. You might, however, be interested in sidebar.nvim.

There is Litee's Calltree but I couldn't make it work. For C/C++, there is the Vim-Ccls plugin that adds those functionalities (although I don't like the UI). But in order to use it I had to switch from Clangd to Ccls and it broke the symbol tree of 2 plugins I had : Sidebar.nvim (which I actively used) and symbols-outline.nvim (an old plugin I tried to use again, but is broken by the change as well).

Oh gosh… make it compatible with sidebar's sections. You'll get plenty of content automatically.

If it's the same issue as in this issue , then it should be fixed in the dev branch.
