What does opt = true mean inside a requires table? Does it just stand for optional?

Answered by lewis6991

Plugins can either be start or opt:

start plugins are loaded automatically after init.lua
opt plugins must be manually loaded via :packadd <plugin_name>

See :help packages

Why people will want to manually load something during development?
