This are the slides for a lightning talk (5 minute talk) I gave at work in Corvil on January 23 2014. Vundle is a plugin that allows for a very convenient way to install, remove and keep plugins up to date. The talk covered a bit of history of how Vundle came to be, and finally presented Vundle itself.

1. Vundle
Managing Vim Plugins With Sanity
github.com/jdevera

3. vim.org → zip file → ~/.vim

4. The Mess: Name Clashes
Plugin Foo
plugin/foo.vim
plugin/utils.vim
doc/foo.txt
Plugin Bar
plugin/bar.vim
plugin/utils.vim
doc/bar.txt

5. The Mess:
Good Luck Deleting That Plugin!

6. The Mess:
Good Luck Updating That Plugin!

7. Pathogen by Tim Pope (2008)

8. :set runtimepath?
runtimepath=~/.vim,~/run/share/vim/vimfiles,
~/run/share/vim/vim72,~/run/share/vim/vimfiles/after,
~/.vim/after

9. Everything under ~/.vim/bundle
Foo
~/.vim/bundle/Foo/plugin/foo.vim
~/.vim/bundle/Foo/plugin/utils.vim
~/.vim/bundle/Foo/doc/foo.txt
Bar
~/.vim/bundle/Bar/plugin/bar.vim
~/.vim/bundle/Bar/plugin/utils.vim
~/.vim/bundle/Bar/doc/bar.txt

10. Problems solved?

11. Keeping it all up to date
(Pathogen + Git + Github)

12. Github or never happened!

13. vim-scripts.org by Scott Bronson
(2010)

14. vim.org → vim-scraper → github

15. We have it good
Can we have it sweet?
