I think you should send this video to the mini.files developers and ask them to politely implement the neo-tree.nvim use case as a new feature for mini.files in the future. Wonderfull job.
Glad you liked the video! By the neo-tree use case you mean to somehow always have mini.files pinned so you can look at the tree structure? The developer is echasnovski, and watched the video, there's a thread going on in reddit if you'd like to suggest stuff there, link below www.reddit.com/r/neovim/s/aOEkSsOhIo
Great video. Could you explain the difference if I set mini.file as the default file explorer? I didn't notice any difference. How neovim use the default file explorer option ?
@@yuxiang4218 thank you! Great point, here's what the docs say `options.use_as_default_explorer` is a boolean indicating whether this module should be used as a default file explorer for editing directories (instead of |netrw| by default). github.com/echasnovski/mini.files/blob/170d0dd321ca377cb427fb5576d4d75601c1c2da/doc/mini-files.txt#L631-L633
@@SajidAliSoftwareEngineer I don't have any issues with my own config and I have no idea why yours is not working. However, you can download and apply multiple configs and test them out, my config is called "neobean" and I explain in detail how to get it in the video below, hope that helps: Lazyvim or kickstart in Neovim? ruclips.net/video/_WJBLC8LciQ/видео.html
@@NRCPQ that's a great idea, and I've thought about it, because I think it allows me to view previews of images. Do you know if it allows me to manipulate multiple files the same way that mini.files does?
@@linkarzu renaming files? yes it support bulk rename. not powerful as mini.files in term of overfall manipulate multiple files tho. but the thing is yazi layout will help you focus more on center of screen and it just better for quick tasks (like 95% of all the tasks lol) plus having same keymaps as my main file manager is also great.

Haven't tried mini files because of the way it looks but I think I'll try it. I use oil and neotree.
@@muizzyranking give it a try and let me know, if you like manipulating files in oil, I think you're gonna love it.
Hi!~ I'm not sure if it's because of my config, but the mini.files window starts from the my root folder instead of the folder of my current buffer
Yes, probably your config, are you using the default config that comes with the plugin?
@@linkarzu I took a look at your config! it works well and like your mapping as well
@@lintaoamons5712 Glad to hear it worked!

Basically it will open mini.files instead of netrw when you do something like "neovim ~/path/to/dir"
@@2Championsthanks, that didnt make much sense to me either, so it's for when you open a directory from outside neovim?
@@linkarzuyes. When you enter nvim path/to/dir/ it opens the default file explorer inside of neovim.
@@muizzyranking appreciate it!
I tried your neocim config but i got many errors
@@SajidAliSoftwareEngineer do you use the lazyvim distro like me or something else?
@@linkarzu yes lazyvim using, actully my eslintsrc is not working

just use yazi inside nvim

Appreciate the suggestion, I'll install it some day and give it a try!
@@linkarzu Thank you for your awesome tutorials!
@NRCPQ you're welcome! And I'm glad you find them useful
