> To get Neovim kind of things to be anywhere near usable for modern day development work, you need to bolt a file browser, intellisense, command line section, remote editing section, container plugins, plugin installer, settings section etc etc on top of it Why? Neovim has multiple package managers. It has GUIs like https://github.com/neovide/neovide, it has support for LSP which can do something? Many people are comfortable with programming in an environment like that It also has a terminal (even though if you use neovim you probably prefer to open terminals outside the IDE) and support remote editing too Here are some links https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim & https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug https://neovide.dev/ https://neovim.io/doc/user/nvim_terminal_emulator.html https://neovim.io/doc/user/remote.html
