What plugins do you use to manage work across multiple files?
Tim Pope's projectionist for navigating to files of a particular category or to related files from the current one: https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist.

A few words on Ruby's type annotations state
> For myself, I'm fine with the typing being in a separate .rbs file
We type[0] by having one separate .rbs file per .rb file. Works really well with an editor's vertical splits: type outline on one side, code on the other. That, or use something like vim-projectionist[1].

What's the coolest thing you've done with Neovim?
One of the originals I guess must be tim pope's https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist
- Could use some advice for managing projects in a way that fits my mental model and codebase. Monolithic codebase with project files spread around different working directories. Or just help me change my mental model.

Project & File navigation
use https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist - define the relationships between files (example: app/*js are 'source' files and test/*js are 'test' files). Projectionist sets up `:A` to jump to the 'alternate' file (jump between a 'source' file and its 'test' for instance), and `:Esource` and `:Etest` commands to find/navigate by the kind of file. This is very powerful IMO - for projects with good structure I can quickly jump between related test/source/model/blah files very quickly using these commands. For projects without good structure I rethink or get the team to talk about how we might improve the project organization (ie, lack of structure is a code smell!)

New Plugin: telescope-alternate
I love Tpope’s https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist but this one seems like a great replacement 😎

JVM language users- how do you write your test files?
Tim Pope's excellent Projectionist plug-in has an alternate file feature, which makes it very easy to switch between test and implementation files.

other.nvim - open alternative files for the current buffer.
The plugin is inspired by vim-projectionist and https://github.com/vim-scripts/a.vim

vim-projectionist isn't autoloading in Vim
This feels like a bug, since the plugin doesn't behave as expected when following the installation section verbatim. I filed a bug here: https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist/issues/168

Auto-open unit test file
You need https://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist. Gotta have a file structure for unit tests though.
