How to Setup Vim for Kotlin Development

Simple Neovim config
nvim-treesitter is a plugin that has been around for 4 years now. A lot of people will say this is essential to your Neovim experience, and I do agree to some extend. It is incredibly useful... as a dependency for other plugins. It allows Neovim to gather more information about source code of the current file, and plugin authors can do really cool things that. For "normal users" like you and me there are some modules we can enable. One of them can be used to enhance the syntax highlight of many programming languages. That I think the feature nvim-treesitter is known for.
