A guided session on going from a bare Vim config to a tricked out productivity powerhouse. We'll cover how to set up a plugin manager, install and interface with external command line tools, and seize control of even the gnarliest of codebases!

This was the presentation I gave at VimConf.live 2020: www.vimconf.live/ !

Here's the Git repo that I demoed in this workshop: github.com/jeremyckahn/vim-docker-env

that fzf hop throughout the project sounds really useful. lazygit also seems pretty cool. Thanks.

Absolutely not a setup for myself but still always interesting to see what other people are running

I think to have syntax highlight in fzf preview you must have `bat` installed in your system.

Hi Jeremy, great talk. I'm not sure about something. Why do you use Pathogen, if you install all the plugins with Vim-Plug?

I just don't get why to use pathogen and plug at once ... with plug installed, pathogen is redundant (only real usage is when you have a plugin that is not in git server - GH, bitbucket, etc). Also making plugin backups and moving configuration to another computer is much simpler with plug than pathogen. Not even saying that it is as easy as just defining `Plug ''`.
