Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?
A very nice plugin which I use whenever I have to edit/create multiple files is oil.nvim
-
mini.files - navigate and manipulate file system (with column view and editing text)
For those that want this to replace `oil.nvim`, here are the keymaps I added to my config for it to behave the same as oil. The dash keymap will open `mini.files` in the current directory from the file you triggered the keymap. The `fe` keymap opens the `mini.files` at the root directory so you can use it like your file manager. I like that the location you leave the window when opening with `fe` is not affected by the location you leave the dash trigger. I hope that map makes sense. I use NvChad, so my mapping looks like this, but you should be able to use it in any distro or custom config.

main file explorer plugin replacement?
Maybe https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim? Nvim tree and neotree both have floating mode as well which I prefer more.

Icons
You could try to see how netrw.nvim puts icons in the sign column.

Which file explorer do you use?
I use netrw as well, and find it works pretty well. I do like adding fancy icons to it with this plugin; makes it look a bit nicer and more obvious that I'm not looking at a typical file buffer.
-
What file explorer do you use?
netrw technically via netrw.nvim, recently converted from Dirvish.
