Feature
- Low memory usage. dashboard does not store the all user configs in memory like header etc these string will take some memory. now it will be clean after you open a file. you can still use dashboard command to open a new one , then dashboard will read the config from cache.
- Blazing fast

})- Removed Session as a start screen plugin speed is first.if you want use session you can take a look at glepnir/dbsession.nvim
- Removed Ueberzug script, as the Ueberzug author has deleted the repository.
TODO
- I will write a plugin to implement some popular terminal evaluators image protocol then I think can make it work with dashboard
