What are your primary use cases for Yazi? I'm trying to see if it'll fit into my workflow.
I've been experimenting with it on my MacBook Pro. When I navigate to a few Go projects I'm working on, syntax highlighting only seems to be available in the file preview. After that, it appears to just open in plain Vi.
It hooks into nearly every base utility I can't live without (fzf, jq, helix, ripgrep). If you're on windows im not sure you're going to get a ton unless you live in WSL.
You can pick the editor it'll open by default, which should be configurable with comparable syntax highlighting. Vi can pretty much look like whatever. I think it'll default to vscode on windows.
Im not sure what you'd use it for but manage files, but I would have poked it and probably moved along while I was still on windows.
Edit: the other benefit you might not see has a lot to do with support of mime types.

At work, I use Windows and primarily code in C#.
Is Yazi more geared towards file management?

The xdg open protocol will open whatever app is assigned to handle type locally. Which is probably why it defaults to editor.
