  • vim-kitty-navigator

    Seamless navigation between kitty panes and vim splits

  • Heads up for Kitty users: there is a kitty version of tmux-navigator here :)

  • tmux-fzf

    Use fzf to manage your tmux work environment!

  • And if you have lot of projects open, like I usually do, I would suggest tmux-fzf to switch between them.

  • 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.

  • tmux-resurrect

    Persists tmux environment across system restarts.

  • And to save and restore tmux sessions automatically, I use tmux-resurrect + tmux-continuum.

  • tmux-continuum

    Continuous saving of tmux environment. Automatic restore when tmux is started. Automatic tmux start when computer is turned on.

  • And to save and restore tmux sessions automatically, I use tmux-resurrect + tmux-continuum.

  • vim-tmux-clipboard

    seamless integration for vim and tmux's clipboard

  • There are several plugins and articles on how to integrate yank/paste across vim, tmux, and OS. I'm not posting my solution as any solution is specific to your environment. vim-tmux-clipboard is one example plugin (but I don't use it).

  • tmux

    tmux source code

  • It’s a terminal multiplexer. A good starting point is the tmux wiki. If you decide to use it, after a few days of configuring it the video will make sense. :) It’s a cool tool.
