• vim-asterisk

vim-asterisk It makes *-operator works the way it should by default.

• range-highlight.nvim

  1 198 0.0 Lua

  An extremely lightweight plugin (~ 120loc) that hightlights ranges you have entered in commandline.

I really like range highlight: https://github.com/winston0410/range-highlight.nvim

• ReplaceWithRegister

  8 310 10.0 VimL

  Replace text with the contents of a register.

One that I use literally 50 times a day is (Replace with register)[https://github.com/vim-scripts/ReplaceWithRegister]. It lets you replace the motioned content with your register, so griw would replace the current word object with the register. Absolutely lost with out it.

• fern.vim

  23 1,232 6.8 Vim Script

  🌿 General purpose asynchronous tree viewer written in Pure Vim script

Fern tree viewer, allows you to select a buffer location when opening a new file.

• substitute.nvim

  11 447 7.0 Lua

  Neovim plugin introducing a new operators motions to quickly replace and exchange text.

Question: do you feel this provides functionality that [vim-subversive](https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim) and [substitute.nvim](https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim) do not?

• vim-smartq

  4 45 0.0 Vim Script

  Master key for exiting or deleting nvim/vim buffers with respect to window splits and tabs.

marklcrns/vim-smartq because I wrote it myself :))) can't live without it now

• minpac

  10 830 1.6 Vim Script

  A minimal package manager for Vim 8 (and Neovim)

k-takata/minpac, the plugin manager that stays out my way. It can live as an optional plugin, it's not loaded unless I update or install something.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• lir.nvim

  18 340 3.6 Lua

  Neovim file explorer

tamago324/lir.nvim, the file explorer no one mentions. It's not a "tree-based" file explorer, is more like netrw, it only shows the current folder in the buffer (doesn't have a banner). The interface is very simple, and can be extended using lua. It has a floating window mode and also one that takes the whole screen. Perfect for any type of screen.

• quickfix-reflector.vim

  23 312 0.0 Vim Script

  Change code right in the quickfix window

stefandtw/quickfix-reflector.vim. Magic, just magic. It makes the quickfix list more flexible when doing search and replace.

• nui.nvim

  29 1,390 8.2 Lua

  UI Component Library for Neovim.

MunifTanjim/nui.nvim. This is wonderful if you make any function or command that takes user input. It provides "UI components" with a very convenient api.

• vim-searchx

  6 77 0.6 Vim Script

  The extended search motion.

A fairly new one : https://github.com/hrsh7th/vim-searchx . I wanted that augmented search for so long, but until now I was just using a hack with hop.nvim. I think it is one of the best tool for text navigation:

• vim-ctrlspace

  13 1,726 4.3 Vim Script

  Vim Space Controller

  

I personally love vim-ctrlspace. I found out about it a few months ago, and since then, it's really one of the few plugins that I can't live without.

• dial.nvim

  15 716 5.8 Lua

  enhanced increment/decrement plugin for Neovim.

For me it's dial.nvim. It allows you to increment/decrement more things than just numbers with /. For instance toggling, dates, true to false, markdown headers, etc. You can also add your own values to cycle between. For instance, I've added the literal numbers one, two, three, etc. up to twelve, so that I can cycle between them.

• vim-readme-viewer

  2 29 4.5 Vim Script

  📖 Viewing plugin's README easily like vim help

4513ECHO/vim-readme-viewer (written by myself😀) is my favorite plugin.

• telescope-command-palette.nvim

  4 259 0.0 Lua

  Discontinued Create key-bindings and watch them with telescope :telescope:

• vim-mark

  9 259 1.6 Vim Script

  Highlight several words in different colors simultaneously.

inkarkat/vim-mark I use this plugin SO much, especially when attempting to grok old, hard-to-follow codebases or massive xml config files that I frequently inherit.

• vim-visual-multi

  46 3,777 4.9 Vim Script

  Multiple cursors plugin for vim/neovim

I go with mg979/vim-visual-multi. It might be infamous because some people believe that there is no place for a multi-cursor feature when there are already macros available.

• nvim-tetris

  6 183 0.0 Lua

  Bringing emacs' greatest feature to neovim - Tetris!

I play alec-gibson/nvim-tetris to relax for a moment at work.

• vim-ReplaceWithRegister

  8 73 1.8 Vim Script

  Replace text with the contents of a register.

Thanks a lot for this recommendation! This particular repo hasn't been updated since 2014, here is a more up-to-date version by the same author: https://github.com/inkarkat/vim-ReplaceWithRegister.

• nvim-neoclip.lua

  13 881 4.4 Lua

  Clipboard manager neovim plugin with telescope integration

There's also neoclip :)

• vim-cutlass

  14 184 0.0 Vim Script

  Plugin that adds a 'cut' operation separate from 'delete'

svermeulen/vim-cutlass because I hate the yand-on-delete behavior. d to delete, m to cut. ("move")

• vim-cool

  24 499 2.0 Vim Script

  A very simple plugin that makes hlsearch more useful.

https://github.com/romainl/vim-cool disables search highlighting automatically when you move from the searched word.
