Which file browser do you use ?

• telescope.nvim

  322 13,961 9.1 Lua

  Find, Filter, Preview, Pick. All lua, all the time.

  

I use nvim-tree as a file tree, telescope with find_files to quickly and fuzzy find files (although I'm considering switching to command-t as it's allegedly faster and has better sorting) and telescope-file-browser as a file browser itself. I also tend to use dirbuf.nvim as something alike emacs' dired. It works a bit poorly but gets the job done in most scenarios. I hope we get some real dired in neovim some time.

ranger, I got so used to using it and invested in learning many of its features that I can navigate around quite fast. I'm using francoiscabrol/ranger.vim but I have been meaning to check out kevinhwang91/rnvimr. I'm even using a fork which supports coloured icons.

• hunter

  3 1,315 0.0 Rust

  The fastest file manager in the galaxy!

Yeah, that is unfortunately my experience too. There are ranger-like alternatives Hunter and lf. I have tried to switch a couple of times but my config for ranger is pretty heavily customised and I keep going back to it. I just mash ctrl-c if the previewer locks up the UI and it unlocks it.
