vimspector VS ctrlp.vim

There are DAP extensions for both Vim (e.g. https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector) and NeoVim (https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap). I can't speak as to the experience in detail (I think I briefly played with nvim-dap a year or two ago), but I suspect that for most it will be good enough.

I struggle a bit to put what i want into words but i still try my best.So i got some plugins likehttps://github.com/sindrets/diffview.nvimhttps://github.com/harrisoncramer/gitlab.nvimhttps://github.com/puremourning/vimspectorand so on (but those are the one which i need that "feature" the most).

The actual title is "Vimspector - A multi-language debugging plugin for Vim".

It is a UI around DAP: https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector#what-vimspector-i...

I do think VSCode is a great tool and I recommend it frequently to people, but I still want to set the record straight here. Yes, vim is obviously limited in the sense that as a CLI app it doesn't draw it's own PDF or HTML windows, that's fair. But it can remote control your favorite PDF viewer or browser for roughly the same functionality. I'm currently writing my thesis using vimtex and it's quite smooth. And all the other stuff you mention is implemented quite competently by various plugins like vim-fugitive, coc.nvim, vimspector and copilot.vim.

You could try vimspector. It's main target is vim and not neovim.

I use vim for C++ coding, however it is a bit difficult to set up to make it productive. I use YouCompleteMe [0] for autocompletion, Vimspector [1] with the C++ plugin for debugging, ALE [2] for linting, along with a few other general plugins (such as NerdTREE for file view).

For debugging normally I'd throw a breakpoint() and then have it launch pdb in a terminal from within nvim, but vimspector also exists if you'd rather.

But I mostly use ctrlp when I work with projects. A can recommend vim-ripgrep too, it lets you find strings/patterns in your project files.

You may find something like ctrlp useful. Some sort of fuzzy definition search.

My basic vim workflow is that I open vim, which opens NerdTree for me by default. I can find the file I want in NerdTree, or I can hit Ctrl+p to open a file with fuzzy searching.

I'd personally suggest ctrlp.vim: https://github.com/ctrlpvim/ctrlp.vim

ctrlp.vim - Fuzzy File Opener (req)

There's also some relevant plugins: - ctrlpvim/ctrlp.vim: Active fork of kien/ctrlp.vim—Fuzzy file, buffer, mru, tag, etc finder. - vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf: A Lua API for using fzf in neovim. - nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim: Find, Filter, Preview, Pick. All lua, all the time. - gelguy/wilder.nvim: A more adventurous wildmenu

I have set the line let g:ctrlp_working_path_mode = 'r' and according to the GitHub repo it should allow Ctrl-P to do its searches in the whole project I'm in but it doesn't. It stop at the files opened by Neovim. Did I misunderstood the purpose of the plugin, or a I doing something wrong ?

i use ctrlp.vim
