stevearc / oil.nvim

git clone https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim.git v2.16.0 · 5mo ago

Neovim file explorer that lets you edit the filesystem by modifying a normal buffer and saving.

Why you might care

Oil replaces vim-vinegar-style netrw browsing with a buffer you edit directly: rename, delete, move, or create files with normal Vim motions, then :w to apply. It also supports remote locations through adapters, including ssh and S3, so file operations can cross between local and remote paths.
