(<-- prev step) ... (next step -->)

This should have been in the file itself, but to enable NERDTree to always open on startup, you need to change the ... = 0 to a ... = 1. Sorry about that.

There are two plugins here. NERDTree is responsible for opening up the project tree browser. NERDTree Tabs is responsible for opening up the same project tree browser on every tab.

Use \t to open or close the sidebar. For more usage information, press ? inside the NERDTree sidebar, and read the project documentation:

When I try this, even after changing the =0 to a =1 nothing shows up at start, and when I try \t it says "E492: Not an editor command: NERDTreeTabsToggle"...

After restarting several times, my /.vim/bundle/ folder is still empty minus the Vundle folder... Is Vundle supposed to be automatically downloading these plugins? I skipped the colorscheme part because I am fine with PuTTY's colors but it doesn't seem to be doing any of the plugins..

I had the same issue, went on the Vundle github.
You have to do a :PluginInstall in vim for every time you have a new plugin in your .vimrc

In Vim 7.4 you can have nearly the same functionality of NerdTree with the file explorer.

let g:netrw_liststyle = 3
let g:netrw_winsize   = 15
let g:netrw_banner = 0

nmap <leader>d :Lex<CR> " This will toggle the file explorer on/off

@ahmedelgabri That's actually what I did until up until I started preparing for this talk. I had never used NERDTree before, but I knew that a lot of people in general liked it, so I figured that a lot of people in the audience might like it too.

When I replaced my .vimrc with very this script, error happened as below.
