netrw made better
This or users may have monorepo style projects and vim-rooter to auto-set cwd to specific directories within the project based on certain file markers (e.g. makefile, package.json, ...etc), to accomplish something like :e dir1/file.go | make would run make and then :e dir2/file2.ts | make would run npm.

How to go up a directory while inside of telescope.nvim?
maybe you are already doing this and you want to access files outside the project directory but if not I use vim-rooter to set the root dir of the project automatically when I open vim

You don't need 'vim-rooter' (usually) or How to set up smart autochange of current directory
The airblade/vim-rooter plugin is an essential part of my Neovim workflow. It automatically changes current directory (:h current-directory) for every buffer to a more natural one (like to path of its Git repository). For me this has the following benefits:
-
Vim Issue with opened buffer file location
It depends where you open vim. If you are in home and open a file (even in sub directories) like nvim directory/file.txt, uour vim's current working directory (aka cwd) will be home. A way to make this automatic I think is the built in autocd (or something like that) and plugins like vim-rooter.

How to stop Telescope from changing the root directory after opening a file?
An alternative would be using a plugin like vim-rooter : https://github.com/airblade/vim-rooter
- NvimTree - how to get this behaviour?
-
How to properly cd, so plugins pick up project root?
I just use rooter and avoid thinking about it...
-
How to automatically cd to the git root of the current buffer?
There's vim-rooter, which is great.

What’s the best start up screen written in Lua?
No, it doesn't change current directory. For that, use sessions or airblade/vim-rooter (or wait around couple of months for planned 'mini.root' :) ). And, of course, you can create custom items which will change current directory.

How to Setup Vim for Kotlin Development
Neovim comes with a client. For Vim you will need to install one, such as CoC, LanguageClient-neovim, or vim-lsp.

Lite 🚀 ApolloNvim Distro 2024
👉 With LSP in this installation, I use Coc for its simplicity without the need to intervene in the Coc configuration. LSP has been very useful in my Helix modal editor to configure Helixu.

I can't stand using VSCode so I wrote my own (it wasn't easy)
As well as its own plugins Vim/NeoVim can use VSCode's LSPs, DAPs and extensions either directly or via plugins like CoC[1] and Mason[2].
I would be surprised if emacs couldn't do the same.

ready to use neovim for web development (frontend) - beginners
It is flatly the wrong mindset to think of vim as an IDE. vim is a code editor: get in, make change, get out. Consider vim koans, which are a fun little read. You can throw coc.nvim at Neovim, along with a few other bits to give you a Good Enough setup, but vim isn't and will never be an IDE.

Using CoC inlay hints
I just did a fresh reinstall of CoC, on a newer version of Neovim. I'm now seeing something I hadn't seen before, which CoC calls "inlay hints". They look like this:
-
C# lsp configuration with neovim CoC
I'm currently on an old setup (using coc and polyglot) and nvim v0.6.1. I'll be updating to a more modern setup within next year, using the native lsp and building nvim more frequently. But that's not today.

Does anyone know some good altermatives for these Vim plugins on Emacs?
coc.nvim

LazyVim
There are some plugins which have the best documentations I have ever seen, but you need to read it from the Vim.
Example of coc.nvim: https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim/blob/master/doc/coc.txt

Resources on learning bash scripting
Actually you can with coc.nvim & coc-sh. So long as shellcheck is also installed and in PATH, it'll integrate with coc/vim just fine.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing vim-rooter and coc.nvim you can also consider the following projects:
project.nvim - The superior project management solution for neovim.
mason.nvim - Portable package manager for Neovim that runs everywhere Neovim runs. Easily install and manage LSP servers, DAP servers, linters, and formatters.
vim-startify - :link: The fancy start screen for Vim.
YouCompleteMe - A code-completion engine for Vim
nvim-bqf - Better quickfix window in Neovim, polish old quickfix window.
LazyVim - Neovim config for the lazy
vim-grepper - :space_invader: Helps you win at grep.
nvim-cmp - A completion plugin for neovim coded in Lua.
replacer.nvim - A powerful refactoring tool for nvim.
nvim-treesitter - Nvim Treesitter configurations and abstraction layer
nvim-spectre - Find the enemy and replace them with dark power.
vim-lsp - async language server protocol plugin for vim and neovim
