vim-obsession VS nvim-possession

You must be talkng about pair programming, because that's the only situation where any of this stuff would actually matter. I haven't tried it out, but one possible solution is to just use a shared session file. You can use something like https://github.com/tpope/vim-obsession to keep it updated, and then you can decide on some heuristic to reload the session file (like on a timer, or in an autocommand).

obsssion

If you use Tim Pope's obsession, you can disable it right after closing your tab, then re-open your session. The tab you closed will still be here.

These are the main characteristics of linefly: * Small size (564 lines of Lua) * Very fast startup (almost as fast as the stock Neovim statusline) * Simple tab support (workspace tabs only, not buffer tabs) * Winbar support (works well in combination with global statusline) * Git branch detection * Git status via Gitsigns * Diagnostic status * vim-obsession and possession.nvim session support * Minimal jank as mode changes or write-status or line number changes; I don't like it when the filename moves one or two characters left or right when there are state changes. Not here. * Direct colorscheme support for these themes: moonfly, nightfly (both my own themes) along with: catppuccin, dracula, edge, embark, everforest, gruvbox,gruvbox-material, kanagawa, nightfox, sonokai and tokyonight. All other themes will use best-guess-fallback colors derived from the theme in effect.

Nice work, I may have to try this out. Currently I rely on vim-obsession and a bash function to open vim with a session file matching the name of the directory I'm in.

Instead of a start screen, I prefer vim-obsession, Telescope, and which-key.nvim.

You might want to take a look at tpope’s obsession plugin https://github.com/tpope/vim-obsession

Yes, you can use the post_hook callback in nvim-possession, for example.

This morning while reading the documentation of an awesome looking session plugin nvim-possession, I realized that I had a hidden frustration.

nvim-possession

I recently wrote nvim-possession: it isn't as feature-complete as most other session plugins, but it does only and exactly what you need (which is its market proposition), and it looks cool ;-)!

All the new commands are described in detail in the README and help file, have a look and try it out! Link to the repository.

P. S. Do you mind if I open a PR to support yet another session manager? :p

There are already some quite good session managers out there, however for my use case they all seemed to add many features I didn't need and to require learning commands, mappings and events that I didn't use. As such, I wanted to create a minimal sessions picker that only exposes listing, creation and deletion of sessions, ideally with some visual candies and browsing to make it appealing. And nvim-possession is just that: it is aimed to the ones who aren't using sessions yet (it's still one of the least used vim features from what I hear) and only want the bare minimum without digging into bigger plugins. Moreover if you already use fzf-lua you can just install this on top (as most others use Telescope only instead).
