Suggest me some startup screen plugins
I'm currently using alpha.nvim (https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim). It tries to be more generic than the others, to the point it can recreate most of the other popular ones. It even has template for for example the dashboard layout. startup-nvim (https://github.com/startup-nvim/startup.nvim) seems to do a similar thing, although I dont' have experience with that one. The only other one I've tried before is the classic vim-startify (https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify), which is a little older I think and locks you into its layout.

Is it worthwhile to learn to use vi?
Tbh, startify made me more curious about all the vim possibilities. https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify
-
is there is a session manager plugin ?
Just for posterity since every other session plugin has been posted, vim-startify has autosave and autoload support
-
Do you use vim-startify, or used to? Send me your configs
I am working on a, from scratch, rebuild of the ever classic vim-startify for neovim with a focus on extreme extensibility. I also want it to be as much of a drop in replacement as possible, and don't want to write myself into a corner with some design choices I'm taking
-
Remember open buffers per project?
https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify has also means to store sessions with command 'SSave'.
-
What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
might be well known but i like https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify easy to use start screen with most recently used lists of files, etc.

Finally found a good replacement for Startify (mini.starter)
I was trying to center the startup screen for vim-startify and went down the rabbit hole of looking for a different startup plugin. My main use is that I want to start my already existing startify sessions as everything else I do with Telescope. I found mini.starter and it is working exactly as I want it to so I thought I would share for others that look for something similar. Don't get put off by the many components of the plugin. They are not loaded if you don't need them. Here is my a screenshot and my config for a minimal, centered, startup:

How to go to previous buffer (alternate-file) after Startify?
I am using :e# and ctrl-^ a lot to switch between most recent files (alternate-file), but if I open a file with startify , those commands will error with E23: No alternate file.
vim-vinegar

I use the default file browser in vim (netrw). I know there are plugins that a lot of people like. Should I switch?
I just recently got into the "plugin frenzy", and since I was already using netrw, I ignored all the tree-style options and just installed the tpope's vim-vinegar to extend it.
-
Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?
Netrw + vim-vinegar works for me. In conjunction with harpoon and a bufferline and maybe vim-eunuch, it works out pretty well
-
main file explorer plugin replacement?
I think you might be looking for netrw (:Ex brings it up). It is the default file explorer and can be used in many cool ways. There are extensions for it, like (vim-vinegar, and :help netrw is your friend :)
-
What plugins do you use to manage work across multiple files?
Plain `netrw` with a few options changed and tpope's vim-vinegar for easy access
-
Which file explorer do you use?
I use Vinegar but should try Oil. https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar
-
Nvim-tree or ??
Hijacking netrw to prevent disruptive "project drawer" style plugins as mentioned in the vim-vinegar readme is important to me.
-
Managing your files. How do you do it?
When you understand the default file explorer, you'll probably appreciate https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar

Neovim config from scratch (Part I)
ThePrimeagen suggests pv as the mapping to see the folder, but - comes from me being used to https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar some time ago. Choose your's to your liking.

Using neovim without a file tree plugin
Netrw, vim’s built in file explorer is pretty solid if you’re looking to understand the topology of a project. I really like the pattern of browsing the file tree in the window pane where the file will open. vim vinegar is a great plugin for refining the netrw experience and making it a little more seamless. Takes a minute to learn the keybindings, but I find it much lighter and less intrusive than nerd tree or it’s offshoots.
-
netrw.nvim - It's not because we use netrw that we cannot have nice things!
This one is for the vinegar workflow enjoyers. Netrw is good enough for my needs but it was missing a bit of *bling*. This plugins adds basic icon supports and custom keymappings.
