vim-awesome VS vim-easy-align

I encourage you to add plugins to your vim (tip: use vim-plug). Use vimawesome.com for inspiration.

I don't have a solution for each one of your points, but I'm going to point out a couple that are very useful for me at least (most of these can be found on a site like vimawesome or just native configuration/usage).

Vim Awesome. This is probs the best resource for text editor related plugins for vim. Browse around the site and see what looks like it would work for you. Fugitive, NerdTree, Syntastic, and surround are pretty great for utility.

Get inspired and find your new plugins at https://vimawesome.com/

I originally landed on https://neovimcraft.com because of https://vimawesome.com

Then check out sites like https://vimawesome.com/ have tons of great plugins.

then linked to a very useful guide and repository of plugins

Vim is infinitely customizable. While Vscode allows you to change the app’s color scheme, install plugins, and change a few app settings, Vim offers you complete control over the editor’s experience. You have thousands of plugins to choose from. You can completely remap any keybinding and create new shortcuts for tasks in your daily workflow. And giving you more power as a developer, you can completely reprogram or automate your Vim experience with the built-in Vimscript language or Lua for Neovim.

This is a pretty good website for browsing vim plugins: https://vimawesome.com

VimAwesome is a website with a curated list of vim plugins. You can search by category or type for something that fits your needs. I highly recommend browsing the list just to see what there is.

As part of my journey to moving to Lua, I'm trying to move from vim-easy-align to mini.align.

Not exactly what you are asking for, but table formatting is usually enough with general purpose align plugins: - mini.align - junegunn/vim-easy-align - godlygeek/tabular

I am happy to announce the release of mini.align - module of mini.nvim for aligning text interactively (with or without live preview). This is mostly designed after junegunn/vim-easy-align, but is implemented in Lua and has slightly different alignment specification and user interaction lifecycle.

vim-easy-align - I haven't yet found a Lua-based equivalent with the same flexibility.

Also does this plugin support operator-pending mode like vim-easy-align does? For instance doing gaip, ("go align in paragraph; commas) in normal mode aligns all commas in the current paragraph.

junegunn/vim-easy-align - Aligns text. Accepts text objects.
