neovim-dots VS LunarVim

Other than that Neovim wins hands down. You can disagree, but I will assume you haven't built your config as good as https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots or https://github.com/ChristianChiarulli/LunarVim. Just add Java LSP to it and things will work as expected.

new config : https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots

neovim is fine for now. next is kate editor. if someone has not shifted to neovim checkout https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots. Sorry for the neovim evangelism!

I dont want to let you down , but my config is written in lua and its neovim-nightly so most stuffs woudlnt work on vim :( , i have explained many things here https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots , if anything's not clear then ask me!

Guys check out https://github.com/lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim ( lua branch ) , incase anyone wants my configs https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots .

Hello, I am new to neovim configs. I tried to edit Siduck's Config. I want to use the similar setup as his but only for elixir, html, css. so I did it but nothing seems to work. Can anyone please have a look or edit the config?? It would be highly appreciated. Thanks

I use nvim-compe ,it works well for nvim-lsp , my configs : https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots . This helped me setting up nvim-compe https://youtu.be/NXysez2vS4Q

thanks! my neovim configs : https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots , I recently switched to init.lua and I use bspwm with polybar , I'll put the dotfiles after my exams .

configs are here : https://github.com/siduck76/neovim-dots

LunarVim

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.

I used Helix for a while due to its support for LSP out-of-the-box, which my Vim config at the time couldn't live up to. I switched back to NeoVim after finding LunarVim[1] which had everything I was trying to get setup in my own config.

I'll admit I didn't look into it, but Helix sounds like something like LunarVim (https://www.lunarvim.org/)

Personally I much prefer that the editor NOT ship with something like that by default, especially when it's so easy to set up. I have several different vim config I use, including a pretty bare-bones one for headless systems, and I much prefer the ability to customize something very specifically.

Build tools that can compose together, rather than a single do-it-all tool. That is the power of the low level editors vs IDE's.

I can't comment on any implementation details, but at least with LunarVim (which I use for daily coding), a slowdown when interacting with LSP is very noticeable. Some others have attested to this on a GitHub issue.

I'm not doubting your experiences with the lack of a slowdown, but there is truth that others do experience it. That might be more of a problem with LunarVim itself rather than Vim, but how likely am I (as someone who would like to avoid what he calls "config hell") or other newcomers to avoid whatever pitfalls there are, if a distribution designed for ease of use by people who know better fall into them?

Anyways, although i have not used them, LazyVim and LunarVim comes highly recommended. You can try these and see what suits you .
