There are various types of fractional derivatives in literature e.g. Caputo, Riemann–Liouville, conformable and so on. In the present paper, a new integrable nonlinear Schro¨dinger type equation in (2?1)-dimensions is investigated, which describes the spin dynamics of Heisenberg ferromagnetic spin chains. Some bright and dark solitons and other exact solutions of this equation with conformable time fractional derivative are reported. Then, fractionalize effects of this model are graphically investigated. Moreover, the simplest equation method and Nucci’s method are utilized for differential equations with conformable fractional derivatives.
