It's FAST! (no kidding)
Quickly setup my exact neovim config without any compromises in a few easy steps.
- Download neovim from github, or use a package manager like choco
- if you already have an
init.vim
config, backup it before proceeding. - run the following command from cmd or powershell or bash or any other prompt you like. 😅
git clone https://github.com/hgup/nvim ~/appdata/local/nvim
- run nvim, and spam
enter
to get rid of all the errors. - VimPlug will automatically install all the required plugins.
- After having done that, just restart nvim and Kudos. 🎉
you know what to do ;)
- just run this
git clone https://github.com/hgup/nvim ~/.config/nvim
- run nvim, and spam
enter
to get rid of all the errors. - VimPlug will automatically install all the required plugins.
- and you are done. Restart to view effects.
It looks a lot like chris@machine’s LunarVim as a lot of elements have been inspired 👀 (don’t sue me) from it.
Reconfiguring it is quite simple, just take a look at init.vim
and it all will make sense.
- PLUGINS (using VimPlug)
- KEYBINDINGS (feel free to change them as you like)
- STANDARD SETTINGS (the necessary settings that all vimmers change)
- RICING (to add that extra bling)
- GUI SETTINGS (I use neovide as neovim’s GUI client. Check it out)
- PLUGIN SETTINGS (to configure the plugins individually)
- [–LOOKS–] # not required though, same as ricing but if (at all) any colorscheme related settings
- [–FUNCTIONAL–] # useful plugin settings
- [–HYBRID–] # adds to looks as well as useful at the same time
- [–NAVIGATION–] # things that allow you to move faster!!!!!!!!
Yeah, I know that its a really long init file. But my philosophy is having only one place where you can copy and paste the config from 💀 instead of having a directory structure that is a pain to maintain.
