which-key.nvim VS NvChad

There is a well known plugin for neovim to do this kind of behavior. You can even create your own hotkeys into that plugin and will help you navigate and memorize different hotkeys for the editor. The plugin is called whichkey, and this is their github https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim

The menu most certainly comes from folke/which-key.nvim. Take a look into part of your config which sets it up.

By default, most of nvim packages have WhichKey plugin which shows popup with available commands. For instance, you press space or g and what for a second:

One of the recent innovations in the Vim space that I've appreciated a lot is which-key by folke for Neovim: https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim

It makes keybindings in vim discoverable, it's quite magical. For example, press g and get a table of all the various commands that follow from there. Press mapleader and get a table of various commands from there, etc.

>The problem with that is that for some rarely used action one forgets...

Install https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim and you will always have a popup that will tell you what keys to use next.

https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim - it's like a cheat sheet in neovim!

folke/which-key.nvim will help with you with your key maps.

I recently started actively using which-key plugin that shows the contents of all registers when pressing ".

3) I'd recommend using Telescope, more specifically, :Telescope keympas. There's also which-key, which might be more intuitive, but I haven't used it.

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.
