Yet another fork of kickstart.nvim

Introduction

This repo is a fork of kickstart.vim made by Tjdevries with some changes that I do.

Kickstart.nvim targets only the latest 'stable' and latest 'nightly' of Neovim. If you are experiencing issues, please make sure you have the latest versions.

Distribution Alternatives:

  • LazyVim: A delightful distribution maintained by @folke (the author of lazy.nvim, the package manager used here)

Installation

Requirements:

  • Make sure to review the readmes of the plugins if you are experiencing errors. In particular:
  • See Windows Installation if you have trouble with telescope-fzf-native

Neovim's configurations are located under the following paths, depending on your OS:

OS PATH
Linux $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim, ~/.config/nvim
MacOS $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim, ~/.config/nvim
Windows %userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\

Clone kickstart.nvim:

# on Linux and Mac
git clone https://github.com/rodmedeiross/kickstart.nvim.git "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"/nvim
# on Windows
git clone https://github.com/rodmedeiross/kickstart.nvim.git %userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\ 

Post Installation

Start Neovim

nvim

The Lazy plugin manager will start automatically on the first run and install the configured plugins - as can be seen in the introduction video. After the installation is complete you can press q to close the Lazy UI and you are ready to go! Next time you run nvim Lazy will no longer show up.

If you would prefer to hide this step and run the plugin sync from the command line, you can use:

nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa

Windows Installation

Installation may require installing build tools, and updating the run command for telescope-fzf-native

See telescope-fzf-native documentation for more details

This requires:

  • Install CMake, and the Microsoft C++ Build Tools on Windows
{'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim', build = 'cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release && cmake --build build --config Release && cmake --install build --prefix build' }
