Wait, what's wrong with the built-in netrw? I actually started with NERDTree before I knew netrw existed. After discovering netrw, I switched to it instead. I think it looks just fine and prefer it to the more complex NERDTree.
- icc97 9y agoI agree, it's better to work with the internal tools if possible. I did install Tim Pope's vinegar plugin [0] as it adds some nice tweaks to netrw. But I've since switched to using FZF [1] and hardly use netrw anymore.

- bgrohman 9y agoCool, thanks for the recommendations. I've tried ctrlp for fuzzy finding, and it works ok. Might give FZF a try though.
