This repository is my personal fork of kickstart.nvim, an amazing starting point to write a custom Neovim configuration.

This repository contains my entire Neovim configuration, & with it, I use Neovim as my main code & text editor. Given some efforts to configure & get the hang of it, Neovim comes with all the features of modern IDEs, while being very powerful, light-weight, almost infinitly customizable, & living in the terminal (meaning it can be installed and used directly through SSH on remote machines).

• git, to clone this repository

• fd & ripgrep to search files or within them through the telescope.nvim plugin

• npm & Python, to install external tools, like formatters, debuggers, etc.

If you have had another Neovim setup previously and you want to remove the Neovim temporary files, or just to re-install Neovim completely from scratch, you can use:

rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim

# to install the latest stable version:
brew install neovim
# or, to install the nightly version (with the latest features but less stable):
# brew install --HEAD neovim

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/clementjumel/kickstart.nvim ~/.config/nvim

# to install the nightly version (with the latest features but less stable):
apt install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:neovim-ppa/unstable
apt update
apt install neovim

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/clementjumel/kickstart.nvim ~/.config/nvim

After the installation of Neovim, open it, for instance with the nvim command, then the Neovim plugin manager, Lazy.nvim, will automatically install the Neovim plugins. Once they are installed, the nvim-treesitter plugin will automatically install language parsers for Treesitter. Then, once all of this is done, you can type in Neovim :MasonInstallAll and press Enter to install all the external tools I use. Once this final installation step is over, quit Neovim with :q and Enter and next time you open it, everything should be ready to use.
