 3. `toggle` has a second parameter which allows to toggle without focusing the explorer (`require"nvim-tree.toggle(false, false)`).
 4. You can allow nvim-tree to behave like vinegar (see `:help nvim-tree-vinegar`).
 5. If you `:set nosplitright`, the files will open on the left side of the tree, placing the tree window in the right side of the file you opened.
+6. You can automatically close the tab/vim when nvim-tree is the last window in the tab. WARNING: other plugins or automation may interfere with this:
+```vim
+autocmd BufEnter * ++nested if winnr('$') == 1 && bufname() == 'NvimTree_' . tabpagenr() | quit | endif
