nvim-ts-rainbow VS nvim-tree.lua

for the past few days I have been working on a fork to the nvim-ts-rainbow plugin: nvim-ts-rainbow2. I am pretty much done, except for one small issue: finding out the level of a node relative to other container nodes. I know how to determine the level of a node in the tree (just keep counting up from 1 while going through the parents until I hit the root), but that is not what I need.

I noticed that it was abandoned when I was about to update my PR. The PR as it is up there is a mess, so I went through a major refactor and subsequently lost everything like an idiot.

The "look" you're looking for is given by a bunch of plugins: - OneDark.nvim as colorscheme - TS Rainbow for rainbow brackets - BarBar for bufferline - Nvim Devicons and NerdFonts to view file icons - NvimTree as a file manager - Indent Blankline to show indentation guides - CompetiTest with vertical split UI - Feline as statusline plugin. In the screenshot feline is configured with a custom theme. As you can see statusline is different for CompetiTest buffers: a different statusline can be configured for every different filetype using conditional_config.

For highlightning parentheses you could check out nvim-ts-rainbow

Consider using nvim-ts-rainbow to get rainbow parentheses.

To get changed colors for nested brackets, use nvim-ts-rainbow. I think the rest of the comments have you covered on getting colors up to snuff for you. To me it just looks like mismatched colors, not that anything is wrong

I'm happy to say I have fixed [the bug in nvim-ts-rainbow] that caused all JSX props to be highlighted](https://github.com/p00f/nvim-ts-rainbow/issues/118) in extended_mode instead of just highlighting the tag names. It was bugging me for a while when working on React components. Now, only the tag names and angle brackets in JSX elements are highlighted.

Lsp support is pretty good with Neovim, but obviously depends on what Lisp you use. I also like ts-rainbow a lot, but that's literally just visual fluff for brackets

This works for installing the other plugins. But I can't seem to access nvim-tree. According to the website (https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua), I should be able enter :NvimTreeOpen in neovim, but I get "Not an editor command: NvimTreeOpen." Any ideas?

For splitting the terminal you could try either toggleterm or tmux. If you want to send things from one tmux pane to another, then you can use slime. For a toggle-able filetree, you can use nvim tree.

(Neovim) nvim-tree

Also you can use your file browser such as neo-tree, nvim-tree, or even netrw.

I have almost finished customize nvim tree to equal bg colors. Can't resolve only when nvtree out of focus. What of paramets i should write? I tryied from this https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua/blob/master/doc/nvim-tree-lua.txt but nothing

I was having an issue with my colorscheme Sonokai and I found my issue

Personally I use will133/vim-dirdiff plugin, but it is pretty troublesome as I need to invoke `:DirDiff /path/to/dir1 /path/to/some/dir2`. What would be ideal is to extend nvim-tree, to be able to mark two directories (in similar manner as it has bookmarks) and then execute `:DirDiff` against those marked directories, but I'm not that familiar with Lua yet to write that. ;/

The open_on_setup feature apparently has been removed in nvim-tree.lua https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua/wiki/Open-At-Startup. Look at this wiki page where you can get all the necessary helpful information there about how to configure open_on_setup.

My tabstop is changing from 4 to 8 everytime that I open a file using nvim-tree https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua
