description
vmux leverages vim's server feature to have just one instance of vim running in your tmux session or even globally if you like.

vmux is a simple wrapper around vim/neovim/kakoune that will automatically start a server.  Subsequent calls of the wrapper script will open new files in the existing vim server.

Development happens here: https://github.com/jceb/vmux
