basically harpoon for tabs

TabGaze

• a simple plugin to get an overview of your currently open tab pages
• quickly switch to a tabpage without risking wrist injuries
• (basically harpoon for tabs)

Installing

Lazy.nvim

an example config for lazy.nvim would look like this

{
    "butteronarchbtw/tabgaze.nvim",
    config = function()
        require("tabgaze").setup()
        vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>tp", ":Tabgaze<CR>", {silent = true})
    end
}

Credit

i still have no idea of how to develop nvim plugins so a lot of inspo for figuring it out myself comes from these repos

• https://github.com/ThePrimeagen/harpoon because you know what the name is
• https://github.com/tamton-aquib/duck.nvim for figuring out what a even a small nvim plugin needs to get up and running
• https://github.com/nvim-lua/plenary.nvim for figuring out how UI in nvim works

TODOs

• shortcuts for jumping to tabs directly
• option to start at the top of the list or at the tab you are at when opening the view
