Hello fellow gruvbox user!

This is super minimal! Do you use a file browser like nerdtree?

David Mendez Guardado • Oct 31 '19

nop, i just like this way, i try to install the filebrowser but i fail hahah, maybe a bad configuration :(

Might have something to do with Vundle, I don't think it's well maintained anymore. I suggest taking a look at vim-plug

Btw, that is reaaaallly minimal lol nice 👍🏻

Nice! So you pretty much just use Vundle to get gruvbox? This looks similar to my config (except I just use my terminal to set colors).
