Sidebar to check notes without leaving workflow

[fithurriague]

It would be really handy to have a command (with it's own shortcut) to accede a nerdtree-like menu of ur principal workspace notes. So while coding you can quickly change something in your notes and continue working without having to worry about the notes being somewhere in your open buffers or having to fuzzyfind them.

I think this is rather out-of-scope for neorg itself. A proper implementation of this would require a manual support for a multitude of file-explorer plugins. Instead, I suggest that this be handled by the user configuration on a per-usecase basis. I believe that most file-explorer plugins support a way of opening a specific directory in a buffer (be that a split or a floating window). Since you configure the locations of your Neorg workspaces yourself, too, you can easily configure a function/command to open a file-explorer at that location.

Here is an example for a Telescope mapping to fuzzy find over all files in a workspace:

nnoremap <silent> <leader>of <cmd>lua require'telescope.builtin'.find_files(require'telescope.themes'.get_dropdown( { previewer = false, prompt_title = "~ neorg ~", cwd = "~/neorg", find_command = { "rg", "--ignore", "--hidden", "--files", "--no-ignore-vcs", "--glob", "!.git" } } ) )<CR>
