dotfiles VS NvChad

Mostly shell hackery and a bunch of more convenient selection, copy and paste functionality plus extensive documentation like the (supposedly) undocumented line selection operator g_ https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/

I am relative satisfied with mine, although I still dont have a working solution for (vendored) project search and custom sources on keypress for completion is also missing (command completion breaks C-l/Tab for file completion): https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/tree/master/.config/nvim

My config consists mostly of documentation, where you can take a look. I have a plugin as git dir I do include for company stuff, because of network shenanigans packer can not handle. https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles

You can see my dotfiles here https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/tree/master/.config/nvim

Otherwise, you can check my setup, but I did not setup snippets yet https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles

Thats how it works. You could reduce the amount of plugins or document them for quick lookup. I do this extensively in my dotfiles https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/nvim/lua/my_packer.lua

For my config I did write a pile of notes of the default keybindings because I found no good and dense note collection on (all) default keybindings and Vim+Neovim hardcodes them with only an annoying way to search exact the exact keybinding. https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/tree/master/.config/nvim

If you want a more minimal example for explanation, you can check my cmake template: https://github.com/matu3ba/dotfiles/blob/master/templates/CMakeList.txt

I find this cleaner to do in lua without vimscript calls, see here.

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.
