Description

Hello, I normally manage Vim plugins as Git submodules and then load them using packadd, like this:

packadd! terminus
packadd! corpus
packadd! vim-zsh

What I'm trying with markdown-preview is:

packadd! markdown-preview, { 'do': { -> mkdp#util#install() } }

Any way I can make it work this way?

Thank you!

Research direction
Investigate whether the plugin's existing installation method (e.g., via vim plug or native package loading) can be adapted for packadd. Review the plugin's README or docs for instructions on manual loading. Check if the plugin's 'do' hook works with packadd or requires an alternative approach. Consider looking at other plugins that support packadd for patterns.
