A terminal manager plugin for Vim and Neovim that runs terminal instances in floating/popup windows. It supports managing multiple terminals, switching between them, and integrating with fuzzy finders and task runner plugins.

Use cases

• open a terminal in a floating window inside vim
• manage multiple terminal buffers in neovim
• toggle a popup terminal over my editor
• run cli tools like ranger or fzf inside vim
• use vim as a task runner with floating terminals
• switch between terminal instances with a fuzzy finder

When to choose

• you live in Vim/Neovim and want quick, toggleable terminal windows
• you need multiple terminal instances with easy navigation
• you want terminal integration with fuzzy finders or asynctasks.vim

When to avoid

• you use an editor without terminal support
• you need to run long-running jobs that would slow the builtin terminal
• you prefer an external terminal multiplexer like tmux
