Follow the Leader Plugin Management

Vim plugins are easy to make, and the number of available plugins keeps growing every year. Some cater to a very narrow audience and improve on a very particular workflow, while others aim to make Vim more effective to use for the public. This chapter will take a deep dive into installing plugins and customizing your workflow through remapping keys. This chapter will cover the following topics:

  • Ways to manage multiple plugins with vim-plug, Vundle, Pathogen, or Vim’s native package feature
  • A way to profile slow plugins
  • An in-depth explanation of primary modes in Vim
  • Intricacies of remapping commands
  • The leader key and how it’s useful for all kinds of custom shortcuts
  • Configuring and customizing plugins
