You don't need NERDTree, you only need vim

Native sidebar for VIM

Minimal plugin that makes netrw more intuitive

Use CONTROL+B to toggle a sidebar with your directory files, just like VSCode. This plugin only uses native netrw with some nice defaults and maps the keyboard shortcut. This means you don't need NERDTree because vim already has a nice file browser.

Install

I use vim-plug

Plug 'pablopunk/native-sidebar.vim'

You can assign your own keyboard shortcut:

" Use ctrl+T
let g:native_sidebar_shortcut = '<c-t>'
