dot VS lazy.nvim

I add more stuff on top of LazyVim. See my dots here https://github.com/folke/dot/tree/master/nvim

There's some customizations I did with keyd that could be useful for others. See here

I found myself with the same problem and found a solution in LazyVim's maintainer's dotfiles. You have to configure `tsserver` like this, so it doesn't spawn multiple instances. Take a look [here](https://github.com/folke/dot/commit/aef729a076970e770ed84d817419551e82951d2c) to include it in your own configuration.

For anyone interested, I've added preliminary tailwindcss support in my dots here

Take a peek a the dotfiles of the dev who made lazy.nvim folke's dotfiles

You can see here how I added copilot to my own config (with LazyVim)

I spent two weekends searching online repos about how to migrate from packer.nvim to lazy.nvim, and finally, I'm done! Big thanks to folke/lazy.nvim, folke/dot, and LazyVim!

I’m very happy with the new plugin manager lazy.nvim: 1. Powerful control over lazy loading plugins. Example: lazy load when command is run, or on certain events in neovim 2. I like how I’m able to layout the config. Each plugin I have has their own lua file for config (example from someone else dotfiles)

First, I installed NeoSolarized.nvim via lazy.nvim, so the code would be simple like the following one.

In my case, I have switched to Lazy.nvim for all of my Neovim plugin needs ( Thanks again Folke! ), so it would be great if you were at least minimally familiar with how Lazy works as well.

If you've read old tutorials about Neovim configuration you've find the way they create keymaps is a little bit different from what people do now. And if you check other people's configuration sometimes you'll find they create their keymaps using lazy.nvim. This is causing confusion among Neovim users.

The basic plugins will be downloaded on the first run using Lazy, a package manager for Neovim that loads only the necessary plugins as you use them. Once it's done you should be looking at a full-fledged IDE.

it looks more like something is wrong with your neovim install rather than your config. based on this lazy.nvim issue you may have an updated neovim binary but your neovim runtime files are not up to date. try completely reinstalling neovim.

It is possible to manage plugins yourself, but I would recommend a plugin manager such as Lazy (https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim). There are many more plugins that most would argue are virtually essential, but these should at least be able to get you some autocompletion and highlighting without too much messing about. Be sure to read the install instructions for each of these plugins!

whenever i add this: ``` -- bootstrap lazy.nvim local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim" if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", "--branch=stable", -- latest stable release lazypath, }) end vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)

Easily updatable. Versions are stored in manifests and can be easily updated with a single command. neovim's lazy-lock.json however is managed separately by lazy.

require("keymaps") local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim" if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", "--branch=stable", -- latest stable release lazypath, }) end vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath) require("lazy").setup({ "folke/tokyonight.nvim", {"nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter", build = ":TSUpdate"}, { 'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim', tag = '0.1.4', dependencies = { 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim' } } })
