Creating/Saving a Vim Layout

Question

Everytime I open a project/directory I use the exact same vim pane layout:

 ---------
|    |pane|
|pane|pane|
|    |pane|
 ---------

I would like to be able to open a new vim session with this layout, all of the panes on the right would start in :Explore mode, while the left pane would start in :terminal mode (specific to neovim).

Is there any way to create a vim "layout" for a new session?

Answer 1

Try something like this:

nvim -c ':vsp|Explore|sp|Explore|sp|Explore'

Placing terminal in front is tricky because it steals focus.

Now I got a idea.

nvim -c ':vsp|Explore|sp|Explore|sp|Explore|wincmd w|te'
