Neovim’s Built-In Terminal Emulator

When you run Neovim in a terminal you’re never far from a shell. If you want to run a single command line, you can use :!{cmd}. Or if you want to run a series of commands, you can use <C-z> to suspend Neovim. This returns you to the shell that you used to launch the nvim process. When you’re done with the shell, you can bring Neovim back into the foreground using the fg command. That brings Neovim back to life exactly as you left it.

You might be wondering: What could I do with Neovim’s built-in terminal emulator that I can’t already do using this suspend/resume workflow?
