SPEED UP your Vim navigation skills!

Part of the Vim philosophy is "least key stroke" motions. In many cases, users are great with motions but neglect it when it comes to project navigation. In this video I'm exploring different options, some native, some using plugins and comparing their abilities and what they bring to the table.

Telescope is one of the greatest additions for nvim, it created this sort of new "terminal based IDE" image in which would be almost weird to not have telescope as it is to not have a file tree in GUI IDEs
Also, in marks topic, i highly suggest you harpoon for memory muscle based motions between a feature related set of files, it's been game changing for me.
Glad to see another great video!

Man, you put so much effort into the vids! thanks

[iamworstgamer]

oh man which theme you are using, its beautiful.

[rafaeljacovmedel]

what colorscheme do you use? also what is the plugin you used to display messages in another floating window?

[devstefancho]

3:30 ma for local and mA for global, I think this is maybe typos

[giuseppematheus]

I think this may be useful to improve the experience with jumplist.


vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("CursorHold", {
callback = function(_event)
vim.cmd("normal! m'")
end
})

Harpoon is a gaming changer when you are working with many files, refactoring large chunks of code.

[LilianChisca]

Hey mate, just wanted to say your videos are absolutely top-notch! I've been learning so much from them and some of your tips are seriously game-changing. Keep 'em coming, because we're all here for it. Can't wait for the next one. Cheers!

For a fun project, extract your kebinds into a table (maybe in a separate file), and load them in the init field where your plugin declaration is.

I've discovered these techniques after 6 months of using vim. This is a great video to watch to know all of them quickly.

[ElliotWilks-yiqh]

is there a way to literally just increase the speed of the cursor or blinding line in vim. So for example if I press and hold the j key to move down it moves down much faster than it currently does.

3:58 how configure Cmdline ui like you?

[AntonyXavier-vj]

Hi, is there a way to integrate Harpoon with Tabline (lualine plugin), i tried but I'm not able to update the Tabline when i add or remove files in Harpoon. it only loads the added files when neovim is opened within a directory

[niksingh]

how to get bufferline merged with lualine as you have?

[MoreChannelNoise]

You have a great vim setup but havent done a video about it yet
