The NERDTree provides two mappings you could use manually to get this effect: Typing cd on a node changes the directory to it, and typing C on a node, "enters" it via the NERDTree.
To rename a file in NerdTree, navigate to it, then press mm . It will open a prompt with the old full path already written for you, which you can modify to type the new name of the file.
To open a NERDTree panel, in normal mode, we call :NERDTree . At this point, we can open any file by typing o , or with the more convenient alias, the Enter key.
When in the NERDTree window, press 'm'; you should see a menu at the bottom. Type in 'a' for add childnode. Now input the directory you want to create, making sure to add a '/' at the end, otherwise the script would create a file.
AFAIK NERDTree cannot create parent directories like 'mkdir -p' does.
Pressing m would open a menu below and you can select from a list of actions.

Pressing a would let you add a childnode. A childnode can be a file or folder depending if you add a forward slash ( / ) or not.
If you don’t add a forward slash like below, it would create a file.
