[PLUGIN] opens xplr inside nvim, and hosts a msgpack client inside xplr!
Created this plugin because I've switched from Ranger to xplr.nvim as my daily driver and wanted a cleaner interaction between the 2 programs. I like to sometimes use my file manager within neovim, and would prefer not to use shell to exchange data between them. Because xplr now uses LuaJit, pynvim/python isn't needed etc (like other msgpack plugins) It aims to support the "regular" features (opening files in nvim, switch cwd etc) like in rnvimr or nnn.vim

Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?
You can ranger inside of Neovim with this plugin rnvimr. Check it out. Neo-tree is another plugin that I like as a file manager. And also mini.files is another option if you prefer a more minimal approach and the ability to manipulate files like you edit a normal Neovim buffer. I'm pretty sure there are other great options out there as well, these are just my personal preferences.

https://github.com/kevinhwang91/rnvimr is pretty good, it opens ranger in a floating terminal and takes care of file renaming and deletion, etc.

[Plugin] ranger.nvim
This plugin is unique from the other alternatives such as ranger.vim and rnvimr in that my plugin has no dependencies besides ‘ranger’ and written in 100% lua.

Which file explorer do you use?
chadtree for dealing with files in the current project & Rnvimr (which basically integrates Ranger) when I want to work with files all over the disk.

VSCode like file preview in neovim?
Although Ranger is a terminal application, you can use it in neovim via some plugins like rnvimr.

Am I missing something with "move file" in neotree?
If you don't mind switch to another plugin I highly recommend rnvimr to use ranger, a real-world, feature-complete file amanger perfecrly integrated in nvim.
