  • https://github.com/mbbill/undotree one of the most useful plugins I have ever used

  • vim-sort-motion

    Vim mapping for sorting a range of text

  • vim-sort-motion - as far as I am aware, there are no Lua-based equivalent plugins for NeoVim with an operator-pending mode.

  • Comment.nvim

    :brain: :muscle: // Smart and powerful comment plugin for neovim. Supports treesitter, dot repeat, left-right/up-down motions, hooks, and more

  • vim-commentary - Comment.nvim is similar but doesn't provide a text object for comments, so you can't easily uncomment multi-line single comments.

  • vim-easy-align - I haven't yet found a Lua-based equivalent with the same flexibility.

  • vim-sandwich

    Set of operators and textobjects to search/select/edit sandwiched texts.

  • vim-sandwich - nvim-surround looks good but is still relatively new and has some missing features compared to alternatives.

    eunuch.vim: Helpers for UNIX

  • vim-eunuch - I haven't yet found a good alternative for SudoWrite or Mkdir.

  • vim-unimpaired

    unimpaired.vim: Pairs of handy bracket mappings

  • vim-unimpaired - I use this a lot, especially for toggles. I would love to replace it, as it is (relatively) quite slow to load.
