vim-projectionist: Granular project configuration

vim-projectionist enhances Vim's functionality by introducing a system of projections. These projections allow users to define custom commands and behaviors based on file types and patterns within a project. This addresses the need for tailored workflows and configurations that go beyond standard Vim settings, providing a powerful way to manage project-specific settings.

Projectionist supports both global and project-specific configurations, offering flexibility in applying customizations. It provides smart navigation commands for easily switching between related files and offers an alternate file feature for streamlined workflows. The use of projections.json allows clear separation of configuration, keeping Vim settings uncluttered.

• Global/Project Configuration: Define projections at the global level or within a project's .projections.json file for tailored behavior.
• Navigation Commands: Utilize :E, :S, :V, and :T commands to quickly navigate between different file types and related files.
• Alternate Files: Jump between implementation and test files or other related counterparts using the :A command.
• Buffer Configuration: Apply specific settings and commands to buffers based on file patterns, enhancing editing workflows.
• Extensible: The projection system is highly extensible, allowing users to easily create custom projections for any purpose.
• Smart Tab Completion: Offers intelligent tab completion based on defined projections and file patterns.
• Easy Installation: Can be installed via package managers or Vim's built-in package support.

The project has been actively developed since 2014 and maintains a steady development pace with recent commits. Community engagement is visible through issue reporting and documentation updates. The project's long-standing presence and consistent activity suggest a stable and reliable tool for use in Vim workflows.

Developers and power users can benefit from vim-projectionist by streamlining project-specific workflows, managing configuration, and improving navigation. It efficiently addresses the need for customized editing experiences without requiring complex Vimscript, offering a robust solution for managing project-specific behaviors and improving productivity.
