  • Authors: how do you make your plugin discoverable and appealing?
    9 projects | /r/neovim | 14 Dec 2022
    Duplicated idea, while it is true that your plugin does center buffer without hiding tabline or statusline, I can do the same in true-zen with 2 lines of configuration). In this case what I would want to strike for is making a very simple script.

    Have you considered using neovim with the [TrueZen plugin](https://github.com/Pocco81/TrueZen.nvim)? I threw that into NVChad and it turned into a very nice writing experience for me. YMMV.
  • TrueZen.nvim and gitsigns.nvim not working together?
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 23 Mar 2022
    At first I thougt, that this is due to the colorscheme I use (github-nvim-theme). There is the issue, that when I want to disable Ataraxis-mode, it throws an error and basically the whole Neovim-session is screwed (disabled ui-elements not being reenabled).

    TrueZen.nvim - seems to be a bit bloated and overkill for what it aims to be, a bunch of different modes and dozens of configurations options
  • What is the Proper Way to Enter a New Mode in a Hook? Also Lua Question
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 21 Aug 2021
    My second question is a bit more... complicated? I use TrueZen and honestly love it it works perfectly and the developer is awesome and always up for adding some neat things like including the ability to set quit to either quit or toggle, but I ran into one issue I can't seem to resolve with it. This may be a bit complicated so if I describe this incorrectly please let me know. TrueZen has built-in methods for toggle supported statuslines like lualine, but does not always toggle non-supported statuslines. I made a pull request about this, but as I got distracted and busy with uni I accidentally abandoned it (I apologies I know people doing that can be annoying). The pull request however did have some helpful information though, it seems what I need to do is create a custom function that toggles my statusline... but I don't know how. If you review the request here you can see a better more detailed explanation. From what I can tell, as someone who doesn't fully understand vim or lua, I need to create a function call, say togglel_my_statusline, and then call that function in true_zen.after_mode_ataraxis_on = function (). So I did some document reading figured out I could simply do opt.laststatus = 0 and as I simply set opt.statusline this should disable the statusline. I then simply created this

    Hello! just wanted to take a minute or two from your time to let you know that TrueZen.nvim has changed quite a bit. I first wrote this plugin after being a few weeks into Nvim with lua knowledge that hadn't been used for around 4 months. As you'd expect, code quality was kind of bad.

  • CosmicNvim - New Themes!
    6 projects | /r/neovim | 15 Nov 2021
    Hi everyone! I’m happy to announce that CosmicNvim now includes first-class support for 4 additional themes on top of the default for a total of 5 themes to choose from! The current selection: - [Catppuccino](https://github.com/Pocco81/Catppuccino.nvim) - [Gruvbox](https://github.com/ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim) - [Rose-pine](https://github.com/rose-pine/neovim) - [Nord](https://github.com/shaunsingh/nord.nvim) - [Tokyonight](https://github.com/folke/tokyonight.nvim) Repo: https://github.com/mattleong/CosmicNvim (⭐️’s are very appreciated!) I’ve previously said that I wouldn’t implement first class theme support for CosmicNvim outside of the default theme… Well, I guess I changed my mind. 😅 For one, it’s probably been the most requested feature. For another, I want to be able to swap and play around with themes easily as well. My initial reason for _not_ wanting to include additional theme support was because I was worried about what sort of complexity it would bring. Turns out it’s not so bad and doesn’t overly bloat the codebase. If you have any suggestions for themes you’d like to see implemented, please feel free to drop them in the open [issue](https://github.com/mattleong/CosmicNvim/issues/25)!

    Not sure if it helps but I have my own colorscheme named Catppuccino (side note: colors will be refactored soon). It has a bunch of integrations and basically everything you'd expect from a full featured theme.
