The config structure is inspired from LazyVim and therefore uses lazy.vim. The config provides these features OTB:
-
code formatting with autopairs, formatting with conform.nvim, diagnostics with trouble.nvim
-
Search and replace in project with spectre
-
LSP support with lsp-zero, mason, nvim-cmp, everything lazy loaded for best performance.
-
modern UI with support for lualine, noice and notify plugins.
I wanted to make this config entirely for myself in the beginning, but when learning how to setup nvim with everything that is needed in order to do my daily tasks, I realized its tough. I was using another config before this (check here) but the LSP part of it was 90% copied from other configs and was confusing for me to know how it actually worked together. Most of the times there were some bugs that I ignored but wasn't able to do that for long.
After this I decided to create my own config that is 100% written by me, and is well documented too. During this I also learned why lazy.nvim was created.As we keep adding more and more plugins to nvim config, it keeps getting slower and behaves same as how commonly used editors do. Therefore I have tried to keep the number of plugins as low as possible and only use that are NEEDED and can be lazily loaded. I plan to keep it this way.
Note: Having a lot of LSPs and linters installed will not be a problem. They are lazily loaded too (thanks to folke for lazy.nvim!) and will not affect performance too much.
Don't copy or use this config if you want to understand everything, instead learn from it. If you want everything to work in your way, then you should write the config by yourself. Or you want to use a pre-made config that just works, then I am happy if the config works for you! Create an issue or a PR if you think anything can be made better!
