About

• Dont expect this config to be beautiful or blazing fast (no hardcore lazyloading is done)!
• I'm just using some plugins with their default configs
• This config only uses only lesser plugins which I think are important for any config.

tinyvim's Issues

need to source mappings.lua manually to work with mini.files

Hey, thank you for this well organized simple config.
I'm facing an issue with a plugin that I prefer over nvim-tree for files which is mini.files, the mapping seemed to not work properly.
added this to plugins/init.lua

  {
    "echasnovski/mini.files",
    lazy = false,
    config = function()
    require("mini.files").setup() 
    end,
  },

and this to the mappings.lua

map("n", "<leader>e", function()
  local MiniFiles = require "mini.files"
  if not MiniFiles.close() then
    MiniFiles.open()
  end
end, { desc = "File explorer" })

the problem: if I open nvim with any file, the mapping doesn't work, until I source the mappings file, like :so lua/mappings.lua
then it works. I open nvim with no arguments, it works until I open any file then it doesn't.
yest whenever I call :lua MiniFiles.open() it works. I find it that weird.

thank you again
