nvim-ide VS NvChad

Yeah, it's not as easy as it can be but embedding neovim right into container in some workflows might be even better than VSCode experience. I have seen some projects that use docker to containerize all tools for development (neovim included) to make programming easier and remove bloat from main system. For example, https://github.com/MashMB/nvim-ide

One more way, that comes to my mind, is really similar to your zip approach but instead uses docker containers such as in this repo for nvim: https://github.com/MashMB/nvim-ide

Here is link number 2 - Previous text "try"

I also wanted to make VIM more like IDE so maybe you will find something useful in my config. It is mainly based on coc.nvim, actually no lua configuration.

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.
