New plugins {#new-plugins}
live-command.nvim

k8s.nvim
Do you manage Kubernetes clusters? Are you often describing pods and deployments? Well, this new plugin by @arjunmahishi might be a good fit for you! Kubernetes, but in Neovim.
NeoZoom.lua
Not strictly a new plugin but TWiN didn’t exist when it was introduced, so we present this as a new plugin. This is a layout-preserving zoom plugin, by @nyngwang.
notisys.nvim
This is a new plugin that uses OSC-99, a terminal escape sequence, to forward notifications sent via vim.notify to
your system notification manager. Not all terminals work (tested with kitty) and
some limitations exist, such as log levels are not supported, as well as icons. By @phaazon.
noice.nvim
Highly experimental plugin that completely replaces the UI for messages, cmdline and the popupmenu, by @folke. It looks really, really nice.
jsonpath.nvim
This is a Neovim plugin containing a function to return a path to access the value under the cursor by using tree-sitter. It may help you understand how to access even deeply nested values in JSON files. By @phelipetls:
papis.nvim
A plugin for papis allowing to manage your bibliography from within your favourite editor. Nice work @jghauser.
smartyank.nvim
A plugin by @ibhagwan that is an opinionated (yet customizable) yank, utilizing the TextYankPost event to detect
intentional yank operations (by testing vim.v.operator) and:
- Highlight yanked text
- Copy yanked text to system clipboard (regardless of clipboard setting)
- If tmux is available, copy to a tmux clipboard buffer (enables history)
- If ssh session is detected, use OSC52 to copy to the terminal host clipboard
A great new plugin!

Did you know? {#tips}
Here are some mappings which help you with fixing spelling mistakes while writing. These mappings are all for insert mode.
- You can use u[s1z=`]au to fix your last spelling mistake automatically (builtin spell checking).
- You can use b~hea at the end of a word to change the case of the word.
- With blgulhea you can (at the end of a word) make the second letter of the word lowercase.
- With that you can correct spelling mistakes like NEovim to Neovim.
And another cool trick provided by this reddit post: when you are in visual mode, you can jump to the beginning or the end of the visual selection by pressing o.
