Managing your files. How do you do it?
I'm already using vifm as my main-file-manager so I'm using `fm-nvim with a custom vifm-open-function to open up vifm in nvim.

Very new to Vim. Having trouble with running programs
You might want “vifm” instead, it’s a vim inspired file manager for the CLI that will let you see files and open them … https://github.com/vifm/vifm

Using neovim without a file tree plugin
I'm using vifm as my daily file manager, so I added it to neovim and I'm very happy with it! :)

vifm questions welcome here?
No, it's a standalone Vim-like file manager (site).

With great power comes great responsibility...
Hey it's already done. Vifm or nnn; take your pick. I prefer nnn since it's faster.

[Projet] PIC 📷
PIC stands for Preview Image in CLI, I think this should be explicit enough. I first made it because I needed a way to display images in the terminal (for an xplr plugin), but the more I worked on it, the better it got, as of now I have implemented 4 different ways to preview images (I couldn't find other ones), some can even display GIFs!

Telegraph and the Unix Shell
Certain file managers like xplr allow for more advanced terminal UX. Check out the video on https://xplr.dev/ and you can see something like a live/interactive ls that allows toggling arguments (instead of running multiple commands and pushing previous stdout further into the past).

Ask HN: Is it still possible to live in a terminal?
The Vim/Neovim ecosystem has gotten unbelievably better over the last 5-10 years. "Living in the terminal" for core development work is IMO better than pretty much anything else out there; my Neovim setup has a modern plugin manager; an IDE-like experience with fast autocompletion as I type, goto definition, and automated refactor support; and a side-drawer file browser navigable with Vim motions. It feels like an IDE, except that it launches in ~100ms and has ultra-low typing latency. Using it with tmux panes means I can have various drawers and panes with a series of full, incredibly fast terminals wherever I want, with long-running tasks like automated test watching/running while I edit code placed wherever I want around the editor panel. Not to mention the Cambrian explosion of "modern" terminal tooling getting built, like xplr [1], hyperfine [2], httpie [3], etc.
That being said, I think "living in the terminal" for general purpose computing, like browsing the web or talking to your coworkers, has been in a kind of frozen standstill while the rest of the world has moved on. I think it isn't worth trying to push non-dev work into the terminal currently.
