LazyVim is a Neovim setup powered by ๐ค lazy.nvim to make it easy to customize and extend your config.

- ๐ค Easily customize and extend your config with lazy.nvim
- ๐ Blazingly fast
- ๐งน Sane default settings for options, autocmds, and keymaps

You can add your custom plugin specs under lua/plugins/
