Mini

I also have mini.nvim installed, which is a collection of smaller standalone plugins. There are more available, but I've gone with the following:

Plugin	Description
mini.animate	Smoother scrolling and cursor movement
mini.icons	ASCII and glyph icons for other plugins to make use of
mini.jump	Enables better jumping forward and backward
mini.move	Allows you to move lines and selections around without cutting
mini.pairs	Automatic pairing for quotes, brackets, etc.
mini.surround	Lets you surround selections with quotes, brackets, etc.

Problems I've Discovered

Pending

• Open link under cursor in browser
  • I tried url-open but it was unable to launch URLs inside of WSL properly for me

Solved

• Way to jump into config from Dashboard
  • Using Telescope and pointing it to nvim config folder
• A way to interact with files and folders that isn't netrw
  • Neotree for full-dir visualizing, and adding/renaming/moving/etc
  • Telescope for moving quickly between files and searching for them (among other things)
• No autocompleting braces/parens
  • mini.pairs
• How can I wrap existing text with parents/quotes/etc? (ie "string" -> { "string" } )
  • mini.surround

Things To Do

General Considerations

• Consider replacing Neotree with mini.files + fugitive, it looks like it's a bit cleaner for what I want

Configuration of Installed Plugins

• Configure lualine. Remove some stuff and see what can be added (like I don't need file encoding type or Tux in my bar)

Concepts To Investigate Without Installed Plugins

• Testing
• Folding
• Jumping to stuff in view
• Debugging
• AI...?
