Top 23 Vim Script vim-plugin Projects

• nerdtree

  77 19,262 7.2 Vim Script

  A tree explorer plugin for vim.

  

Project mention: I use the default file browser in vim (netrw). I know there are plugins that a lot of people like. Should I switch? | /r/vim | 2023-06-29

I personally use nerdtree. Add nerdtree-git-plugin too, that's nice when looking at your project (for files, use vim-gitgutter).

  lean & mean status/tabline for vim that's light as air

  

Project mention: Auto-completion problems for terraform | /r/neovim | 2023-05-24

Project mention: A decent VS Code and Ruby on Rails setup | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-21

I saw no mention of RBS+Steep, the latter providing a LSP. I use it a lot and very much like it, although it's still young and needs love, but it's making good, steady progress! I've been very pleasantly surprised by some of the crazy things Steep can catch, completely statically!

You appear to be working on projects with Sorbet (which I tried to like but found it fell short in practice, notably outside of the app use case i.e it's mostly useless for gems) so it may be a tall order to try on those. Maybe you can give RBS+Steep a shot on some small project?

RBS: https://github.com/ruby/rbs

RBS collection (for those gems that don't ship RBS signatures in `sig`, integrates with bundler): https://github.com/ruby/gem_rbs_collection

Steep: https://github.com/soutaro/steep

VS Code: https://github.com/soutaro/steep-vscode

Sublime Text: https://github.com/sublimelsp/LSP

Vim (I'm working on it): https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/pull/4671

• vimwiki

  112 8,559 6.8 Vim Script

  Personal Wiki for Vim

  

Project mention: Neorg – organize your life in Neovim | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-26

No, Neorg does not use the same markup as Org-mode. They use their own specification that is specifically designed to be different from Org-mode spec.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvim-neorg/norg-specs/main...

Furthermore, each item you have listed as a benefit to Org-mode is in fact capable of being done in Markdown via plugins for neovim, and probably other markdown editors, like Loqseq, Roamresearch, or Obisidian, much in the same way you speak of plugins that interface with .org docs.

https://github.com/wthollingsworth/pomodoro.nvim

https://github.com/Myzel394/easytables.nvim

https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki

So, my suggestion is that before dismissing a comment regarding a plugin that is unfamiliar to you, is to read its spec, and then try to understand why people would be perhaps dismissive of that tool, especially when it chooses to conflict with existing, more popular choices.

• vim-easymotion

  47 7,346 0.0 Vim Script

  Vim motions on speed!

  

Project mention: Do you folks have any unpopular vim script customizations you are proud of? | /r/vim | 2023-07-31

vim-easymotion together with space as mapleader (let mapleader = "\" in your .vimrc) can open up a new world for you.

• lightline.vim

  24 6,640 4.6 Vim Script

  A light and configurable statusline/tabline plugin for Vim

• vim-startify

  37 5,241 3.9 Vim Script

  :link: The fancy start screen for Vim.

Project mention: Suggest me some startup screen plugins | /r/neovim | 2023-05-05

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.

• WorkOS

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  Vim plugin for intensely nerdy commenting powers

  

Project mention: html css commenting things out | /r/vim | 2023-06-01

• vim-sneak

  37 3,156 4.2 Vim Script

  The missing motion for Vim :athletic_shoe:

Project mention: F/f/T/t highlight plugin? | /r/neovim | 2023-07-10

Why not sneak or easymotion?

• vim-signify

  13 2,652 3.1 Vim Script

  :heavy_plus_sign: Show a diff using Vim its sign column.

Project mention: How to configure vim like an IDE | /r/vim | 2023-06-27

Alterntatively, I've been using vim-signify, as we use subversion at work

• neomake

  4 2,649 0.0 Vim Script

  Asynchronous linting and make framework for Neovim/Vim

  

• vim-dispatch

  26 2,567 0.0 Vim Script

  dispatch.vim: Asynchronous build and test dispatcher

Project mention: How to configure vim like an IDE | /r/vim | 2023-06-27

Tis is good for the compilation to make it async( otherwise it blocks) https://github.com/tpope/vim-dispatch it wraps around the built in make/makeprg feature. Would recommend that you dont do it with large builds/outputs.

• targets.vim

  48 2,511 0.0 Vim Script

  Vim plugin that provides additional text objects

Project mention: How to move really efficiently in Vim? | /r/vim | 2023-07-01

targets is nice too.

• vimux

  7 2,180 2.9 Vim Script

  easily interact with tmux from vim

  

Project mention: slimux.nvim - Simple plugin to send text to tmux panes | /r/neovim | 2023-05-24

There's also https://github.com/preservim/vimux, which works very well IMHO.

• vim-table-mode

  19 2,042 5.9 Vim Script

  VIM Table Mode for instant table creation.

Project mention: Csvlens: Command line CSV file viewer. Like less but made for CSV | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-06

While not built around CSV, two terminal spreadsheet tools I have successfully used in the past are sc-im and the (neo)vim plugin vim-table-mode:

https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im/

https://github.com/dhruvasagar/vim-table-mode

Back then I stopped using sc-im because it could not import/export XLSX, if I remember correctly. Apparently it can today!

vim-table-mode always felt a little fragile and I don't want to be bound to vim anymore. That said, it still feels like a small miracle to me to have functional spreadsheet formulas inside markdown documents – calculation and typesetting all in one place.

Project mention: Is there a plugin for async shell :%!command ? | /r/neovim | 2023-05-03

I'm familiar with asyncrun.vim, but it outputs as quickfix. I specifically want to filter editor text (as stdin/stdout).

Then you have all the vimscript plugins, most of which work in neovim too--my favorite of these is vim-matchup
