Juliet VS nvim-web-devicons

Mason.nvim has been pretty great for me when working with my LSPs as well, and their readme is a little more actionable than the nvim-lspconfig repo. I fully understand, it took me so long to get my lsp set up in nvim haha. Here’s most of my setup for my lsp: https://github.com/avegancafe/Juliet/blob/main/nvim/lua/initializers/lspconfig.lua It’s definitely not minimal though

I have never used LazyVim, but from your description I'd say that it can be very helpful being able to customize your configuration easily. In case you want a base place to start with and go through a bunch of plugins to see what you like or not, here's my config right now https://github.com/avegancafe/Juliet/blob/22775c6b4ae28c2f0f21bac703dad8c0483de053/nvim/init.lua

A random related fact, but you can also customize the look of your tab bar with a Python script. E.g. https://github.com/avegancafe/Juliet/blob/main/kitty/tab_bar.py

I know you moved on dotfiles, which is good, but you will probably want to install https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons to get those icons for other plugins

This is already done I think, unless more fixes are needed https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons/pull/264

Motivation: I have been using Emacs for years but I never really sit down and wrote any serious elisp code myself. This time things changed because I saw the nvim-web-devicons. I like trying various kinds of editors, and then I found this devicons from vim editor so good. I really like it especially because it works in the terminal. People always say Emacs is best within GUI but there are times when you have to edit something in a terminal and maybe some like me just like terminal aesthetics. I mean I really like this devicons theme from vim but I never really liked vim keybindings. I want it to be part of Emacs so bad so I finally decided to learn some elisp and make it happen.

Did you install this plugin?

Did you install https://github.com/nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons ?

nvim-web-devicons is a plugin that maps filetypes to icons in a patched font and colors for those icons. It has default settings for both the icons and colors for many common filetypes, but they can be customized and you can add support for your own filetypes.

It uses plugins called renderer to change how the file tree is renderer and it has two plugins for render icons in the tree that support lambdalisue/nerdfont.vim and ryanoasis/vim-devicons, but it lacked support for nvim-web-devicons.

I'm configuring neovim 0.8 on windows. I've installed nvim-tree plugin with its icons nvim-web-devicons. After the installation I cannot see properly the icons in the tree. This is the screenshot with the tree and the configuration part about those plugins:

The "look" you're looking for is given by a bunch of plugins: - OneDark.nvim as colorscheme - TS Rainbow for rainbow brackets - BarBar for bufferline - Nvim Devicons and NerdFonts to view file icons - NvimTree as a file manager - Indent Blankline to show indentation guides - CompetiTest with vertical split UI - Feline as statusline plugin. In the screenshot feline is configured with a custom theme. As you can see statusline is different for CompetiTest buffers: a different statusline can be configured for every different filetype using conditional_config.
