Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?
A very nice plugin which I use whenever I have to edit/create multiple files is oil.nvim
-
mini.files - navigate and manipulate file system (with column view and editing text)
For those that want this to replace `oil.nvim`, here are the keymaps I added to my config for it to behave the same as oil. The dash keymap will open `mini.files` in the current directory from the file you triggered the keymap. The `fe` keymap opens the `mini.files` at the root directory so you can use it like your file manager. I like that the location you leave the window when opening with `fe` is not affected by the location you leave the dash trigger. I hope that map makes sense. I use NvChad, so my mapping looks like this, but you should be able to use it in any distro or custom config.

Your favourite Neovim plugins?
https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim - file explorer

main file explorer plugin replacement?
Maybe https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim? Nvim tree and neotree both have floating mode as well which I prefer more.
- Oil.nvim is pretty cool

NvimTree vs NeoTree
My ‘-‘ is always mapped to a very quick file switcher so it’s currently opening lir (https://github.com/tamago324/lir.nvim)

lir.nvim

Managing your files. How do you do it?
There is the built-in file browser, netrw, but I switched from that to vim-dirvish to lir.nvim to oil.nvim. These are file browsers, not file trees, and my preference for them is probably because I became accustomed to netrw after using it for so long.
-
Using neovim without a file tree plugin
netrw was part of my workflow for a while, but it had some weird bugginess just frequently enough to make me go looking for an alternative. I found lir.nvim and I've been liking it so far, especially because of how minimal and customizable it is.
-
Migrate from NerdTree to NvimTree
Just my two cents, try a file split-based file manager(1). I like lir.nvim. It’s very customizable and the API is amazing if you want to add your own functionality.
-
What are some of your favorite eye candy plugins?
lir.nvim, file manager with a simple interface and support for floating windows.
-
Using NerdTree-like file explore does not feel fast enough.
You should try lir.nvim it is a file explorer kinda like dirvish, I use both, lir for file management and NvimTree for a quick overview of the project
- Any plugin that gives me a floating file manager? I just need it to do operations like move, rename, copy and delete
-
What are your prized/favorite lua functions?
The file explorer uses lir.nvim.
-
what are the most underrated plugins in your view?
