tabby.nvim VS bufferline.nvim

I use nanozuki/tabby.nvim (the original tabby!) for a beautiful, highly functional tabline and tiagovla/scope.nvim to limit buffers to tab scope.

What are the differences between tabby.nvim

I use tabby.nvim to switch amongst the active tab pages.

- The Tabby plugin, which offers a tabline. However the buffer list dependent of each tab is a feature request but without any accessible solution for a novice like me.

The owner seems to let this implementation as an exercise to the user according to this issue

Support restoring "TabName" of nanozuki/tabby.nvim Resolves issue #75 by a lightweight external dependency. So now you have persistent "TabName" for each project :)

tabline (not enough respect for tabs imo) https://github.com/nanozuki/tabby.nvim

tabby.nvim by default only lists the buffers in the windows on the tabpage

I'm using tabby.nvim. I uploaded my tabby-config to https://pastebin.com/jxRq7Knz if you're curious.

So, I'm using bufferline and I want to setup some highlight colors based on the current Neovim theme (light or dark). While Neovim is working, if I run :lua print(vim.o.background) effectively gives me light or dark according to the current Neovim theme. BUT, doing so in the plugin's configuration does not work:

if you use bufferline you can override with: lua options = { offsets = { { filetype = "NvimTree", text = "File Explorer", text\_align = "center" } } }

I’m not familiar with Nvchad but I’m sure they’re using some kind of plugin that show buffers as tabs, you could try something like bufferline.nvim

there are many ways to achieve that. i recommend bufferline.

🧩 Works with any plugin. Check Show and Tell for snippets to integrate even better with plugins like neo-tree.nvim, bufferline.nvim

Left and right arrows to switch between buffers. I used to pair this with giving every buffer its own tab, but now I just use Bufferline which functions similarly.

I'm currently using bufferline.nvim with scope.nvim. I made a github repo with the modifications and credits to Everblush, but I'm not sure if it's allowed, since Everblush doesn't have a License. If It's not allowed, then I'll just delete the repo and forke the Everblush repo.

I believe this bug was fixed in bufferline.nvim's PR#727.
