nvim-starter VS NvChad

Minimal init.lua.

This one is more of an example config.

nvim-starter - modular

I'm working on a config inspired by features people like about helix. Here's the link: nvim-starter - light

Minimal example config

And to be a bit more specific, the branch 05-modular in nvim-starter is the one that uses all the lazy-loading goodness in lazy.nvim.

Also this one: https://github.com/VonHeikemen/nvim-starter

There is a branch with a minimal setup. I mainly use it for testing but it is a good example.

I have this repo nvim-starter, in there you'll find resources of all kind. There is an example configuration split in several branches, you can see the evolution from a simple config with no plugins to a modular opinionated config (using lazy.nvim). In the config branches you'll also find links to blogposts that explain the code in the repo. Hope that helps.

Here's an example config using it: nvim-starter - lsp-cmp

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.
