Couldn't find a suitable Neovim wallpaper for my phone, so I made one
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.

How can I make my own startup screen for neovim i have never done this before
alpha.nvim, you can use this plugin. :)

Alpha nvim not starting
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.

Suggest me some startup screen plugins
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.

Alpha plugin configuration
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.
-
Update to Valet.nvim
An `after_all` callback for for when all startup commands have been executed (I use this to restart alpha)

Why isn't using sidebars to display information more popular?
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.

Do you use vim-startify, or used to? Send me your configs
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

My nvim config for Linux, Windows, Android, and VSCode Neovim
