.dotfiles VS cheovim

My dot files including i3 config and layout json files: https://github.com/killerrat/.dotfiles

Check out https://github.com/killerrat/.dotfiles and look at my install-manjaro.sh if you’re interested :)

You can find this one and a couple of others here too, https://github.com/KiLLeRRaT/.dotfiles/tree/master/images

My full dotfiles: https://github.com/KiLLeRRaT/.dotfiles/tree/windows-native-lsp/nvim/.config/nvim

From what I understand -u just sets the init.vim/init.lua, and does not set the config path internally to that location. The config would still point to the default configuration folder (~/.config/nvim in most cases). In the normal case this would lead to neovim not starting up properly due to not finding the rest of the config files (files that are require-ed). In a worse case it finds those names in the default config and you wonder why your new config is not working. To make it work properly, you would have to do some symlink hacks to mock different isolated profiles. This plugin was written to do exactly this. But now it's no longer needed since $NVIM_APPNAME allows different appnames (instead of multiplexing multiple configs over one config folder via symlinks).

I tried cheovim but like others in the issues, wasn't able to get anything to work unfortunately. So any help would be much appreciated.

This is probably what ur looking for: https://github.com/NTBBloodbath/cheovim

I usually use https://github.com/NTBBloodbath/cheovim to manage multiple configurations

One possible choice is https://github.com/NTBBloodbath/cheovim as to reduce loading time and clutter between setups.
