vim-sandwich VS vim-commentary

vim-sandwich has this too (although syntax by default is sdf).

For example with vim-sandwich you can literally type: siw"sa"ffunctionCall

can't live without my prefered surround plugin

This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but vim-sandwich provides the as text object, that goes to whatever surrounding you're in, whether it's quotes, parens, \begin{environment}...\end{environment} in TeX files, or whatever other sandwich recipes you have set up.

vim-sandwich - nvim-surround looks good but is still relatively new and has some missing features compared to alternatives.

Also, tpope/vim-commentary

https://github.com/tpope/vim-commentary does what you expect!

I've replaced most of my custom maps for commenting with tpope's commentary plugin. It's a great plugin. However, I wasn't happy with the lack of multi-line/block comment abilities so I created some maps to compliment the commentary plugin. Here are some maps that can be used with autocmd, FileType and for JavaScript comments.

commentary.vim + :h gq?

Having said this, there are some useful language independent extensions: jiangmiao/auto-pairs, tpope/vim-commentary, preservim/tagbar, junegunn/vim-peekaboo

vim-commentary comment code comfortably with motions and visual selections alike.

With a plugin like vim-commentary or comment.nvim
