NvChad VS alpha-nvim

NvChad

If you use Android device, you can try Termux , and in Termux I recommend NavChad as IDE . You can also find a lot of other useful packages .

git clone https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad $HOME\AppData\Local\nvim --depth 1 && nvim # if the above path doesnt work, try any of these paths : %LOCALAPPDATA%\nvim %USERPROFILE%AppDataLocal\nvim C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataLocal\nvim

line 1: you would have to copy it and remove all the nvchad keymaps and additionally reformat your keymaps to adopt this format. for example, if you copied the file in the link to lua/user/mappings.lua I believe you can just replace the first line with:

I'm confused as to why this is happenening as I have been able to load LunarVim and NvChad with any problems whatsoever.

I would suggest to start getting into vim by first trying out popular vim keybinding plugins available on your favorite code editor and get used to those first. Then, if you want to dive deeper into the power of Neovim, try out popular configs like LazyVim, LunarVim, NvChad... Taking Neovim from a mere text editor to a full-featured IDE with features like intellisense, debugging, testing, etc... on your own takes quite a lot of work and configuration.

The plugins are: https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim and https://github.com/rmagatti/auto-session

The one that I ended up using is alpha.nvim. It has a really easy configuration interface and is super customizable. It also worked with my colorscheme right out of the box.

alpha.nvim, you can use this plugin. :)

It has something to do with my configuration, I can't seem to display Alpha when starting nvim. There isn't even :Alpha when I start nvim, I have to type :lua require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.startify'.config), to be able to launch it.

I'm currently using alpha.nvim (https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim). It tries to be more generic than the others, to the point it can recreate most of the other popular ones. It even has template for for example the dashboard layout. startup-nvim (https://github.com/startup-nvim/startup.nvim) seems to do a similar thing, although I dont' have experience with that one. The only other one I've tried before is the classic vim-startify (https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify), which is a little older I think and locks you into its layout.

Is this the alpha-nvim plugin? What do you mean by "load?" alpha-nvim has some examples here, but you basically just pass your config to the setup function.

An `after_all` callback for for when all startup commands have been executed (I use this to restart alpha)

i experimented with generalizing the code for https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim for the express purpose of writing sidebars / fuzzy finders etc with the ui builder dsl here https://github.com/goolord/gamma-ui-nvim but I never got around to fleshing it out.

are you doing this for fun? "startify with a focus on extreme extensibility" was my motivation for https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim lol. configuring startify just made me too mad

I'm not certain of what you mean by banners, but if you're referring to the startup screen in the second screenshot, that's from alpha-nvim: https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim
