neovim-config VS nix-darwin-dotfiles

Oh, right, thank you a lot! Here is how I did it (if someone interested): https://github.com/Shatur/neovim-config/commit/03a1483ef4160838586cdc158c595eaf6612d65f

Here is how I use it.

Do don't need to use require for files in plugin folder. They will be loaded automatically. Nothing changed, this is how it worked before. You can take a look at my configuration, I also use the built-in plugin manager: https://github.com/Shatur/neovim-config

Sure, here: https://github.com/Shatur/neovim-config I do not use lazy / async loading for simplicity but I'm pretty satisfied with my startup time. My init.lua contains configuration that unrelated to any plugin and loaded first. I use plugin folder to load all my settings for plugin (each file have the corresponding name). My lua/config_utils contains my custom scripts. I also use firenvim plugin to use neovim in text fields in browser. So I do not load some plugins if I in firenvim session (statusline, bufferline, neogit, etc.)

Editor - I use a modified version of nx-ace, its essentially just the ace/cloud9 editor with a few personal tweaks https://github.com/shaunsingh/nix-darwin-dotfiles/blob/main/configs/nyxt/ace.lisp. Then I can launch grip in a panel buffer for a markdown preview

You can view my config here: https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc-dotfiles/tree/main/.config/nvim, if you want examples of what's described in this post. My config is fully lua, and starts up in about 9ms as per --startuptime

Yes and no. Neovim itself won't load any faster, but there are tools that work better with lua (e.g. packer.nvim). You can also pull some tricks to make neovim load faster (see https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc-dotfiles/blob/main/.config/nvim/init.lua)

Nothing related to this bug but you have useless stuff in packerInit.lua.

Here's how I do it: Piecing out the config: https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc-dotfiles/tree/main/.config/nvim/lua

Instead of VSNIP I switched to luasnip. You can see my installation here (https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc-dotfiles/blob/ea94504185b7315259c901c89fc8cf4bc11ebaf6/.config/nvim/lua/pluginList.lua#L78) and my configuration with nvim-compe here (https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc-dotfiles/blob/main/.config/nvim/lua/compe-completion.lua)

And it doesn't look like im setting guifont anywhere. Heres my init.vim in case something else looks off: https://github.com/shaunsingh/vimrc/blob/main/init.vim
