NeoVim Dotfiles

Welcome to my personal NeoVim dotfiles repository, specifically tailored for infrastructure development. This configuration is designed for NeoVim 0.10, enhancing the development experience by streamlining workflows and incorporating productivity-boosting features tailored to infrastructure as code (IaC). While optimized for NeoVim 0.10, experience with other versions may vary. Built with lazy.nvim and mason for efficient plugin management, it aims to provide a powerful, flexible, and visually pleasing coding environment.

Features

Effortless Plugin Management: Powered by lazy.nvim and Mason, enabling automatic installation and updates of plugins, formatters and LSPs.
Custom Keybindings: Intuitive shortcuts to improve navigation and editing efficiency, discoverable with whichkey.
Enhanced Language Support: Default support for Terraform and Golang, essential for infrastructure development, along with YAML and JSON validation tools to ensure configuration integrity.
Gruvbox Theme: Utilizes the popular gruvbox theme for a warm, eye-friendly color scheme that's easy on the eyes during long coding sessions.
Minimalist Aesthetic: A clean and minimalist interface with no status line, using noice and telescope for user interface, focusing on maximizing screen real estate and reducing distractions.
Performance Optimized: A fast and responsive configuration, ensuring minimal startup time and smooth operation.

Installation

Backup Your Current Configuration (Optional): To safeguard your existing setup, consider backing it up before proceeding.
```
mv ~/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim.backup
```
Clone the Repository: Get the configuration by cloning this repository into your .config/nvim directory.
```
git clone https://github.com/taihen/neovim-dotfiles.git ~/.config/nvim
```
Initial Setup with LazyNvim: On launching NeoVim, lazy.nvim will install specified plugins. No additional installation steps are required. Treesitter language definitions, formatters, linters will be installed dynamically.

External dependencies

Utilities installed with lazy.vim and mason also have dependencies, which have to be managed outside of the NeoVim configuration.

In particular:

Node.js and npm: For JavaScript/TypeScript plugins and tools.
Python3: Required by several Python-related plugins.
Rust and Cargo: For Rust development and Rust-based plugins.
GoLang: For Go development and Go-based plugins.

Customization

Feel free to modify and customize the configuration to suit your preferences. The init.lua file is the starting point, but most of the configuration is in ./lua/ where you can change key mappings, themes, and plugins.
