Tested on a bare Ubuntu 17 machine. This is just a first pass implementation without using any of the advanced features Vim-Plug offers such as on demand loading and post update hooks.

See https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug for more info.

For me the biggest benefit is being able to quickly install/uninstall plugins when switching to a different machine.


vim-plug

A minimalist Vim plugin manager.

Pros.

  • Easier to setup: Single file. No boilerplate code required.
  • Easier to use: Concise, intuitive syntax
  • Super-fast parallel installation/update
    (with any of +job, +python, +python3, +ruby, or Neovim)
  • Creates shallow clones to minimize disk space usage and download time
  • On-demand loading for faster startup time
  • Can review and rollback updates
  • Branch/tag/commit support
  • Post-update hooks
  • Support for externally managed plugins
