File Explorer is merged to Helix editor
I've been using vim/neovim for decades, and "so that you don't feel the difference between manipulating text and files" made no sense.
Then I watched a video from the README (https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim) and yup, that looks amazing and makes so much sense. Thanks GP for mentioning it!

Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?

mini.files - navigate and manipulate file system (with column view and editing text)
For those that want this to replace `oil.nvim`, here are the keymaps I added to my config for it to behave the same as oil. The dash keymap will open `mini.files` in the current directory from the file you triggered the keymap. The `fe` keymap opens the `mini.files` at the root directory so you can use it like your file manager. I like that the location you leave the window when opening with `fe` is not affected by the location you leave the dash trigger. I hope that map makes sense. I use NvChad, so my mapping looks like this, but you should be able to use it in any distro or custom config.
