nvim-gps VS vim-floaterm

I've been using winbar.nvim with nvim-gps which depends on treesitter. Unfortunately it's been archived/deprecated but still works fine.

With the deprecation of nvim-gps we are left with LSP's more accurate code context parser nvim-navic or lspsaga. I however only use LSP for like 5 languages as opposed to treesitter since it's just easier to install all language parser

and nvim-navic or in this projects case it is its predecessor - nvim-gps

I currently use feline.nvim as a framework for creating my custom statusline, and before that I was using galaxyline.nvim. A feature that I would really like though is for each section of the statusline to able to dynamically resize based on the window size, and dissappear if the window gets narrow enough, based on some priority that I give them and some truncation rule. By truncation I mean that for instance a file path could get shortened by pathshorten(), the filetype indicator would only display the devicon and not the filetype name, nvim-gps would only use a depth of 1, etc... This behaviour would be defined by the user, but the framework would calculate which components to truncate in order to fit as many as possible in the priority that the user has chosen for each component.

I've added a pull request to support json https://github.com/SmiteshP/nvim-gps/pull/41

Using https://github.com/voldikss/vim-floaterm and remap the same shortcuts to (un)toggle the terminal would be interesting for you, also about compatibility, because if tomorrow you use nvim in the terminal you have the same key maps.

vim-floaterm has wrappers around some terminal filemanagers.

If you don't like distro's and want to use something of your own, make sure that you have a few plugins like telescope.nvim, lazy.nvim, toggleterm.nvim Or vim-floaterm, gitsigns.nvim, which-key.nvim, which will make your neovim journey smooth. Again these are just few, but I highly recommend it.

My personal favorite is ranger, a multi-panel console file manager that works nicely in a Neovim terminal. I also use floaterm to get floating terminal windows for ranger and lazygit, but that's optional. A Neovim tab with a terminal would work equally well.

For simple tasks like opening a dirty file in nvim I prefer vim-floaterm. It has a really nice integration with a bunch of TUI tools.

The two obvious candidates are vim-floaterm and toggleterm.nvim.

I’d suggest taking a look at vim-floaterm. While I don’t use this feature, it should have the ability to do what you’ve described
