Top 23 Lua Vimrc Projects

  1. NvChad

    Blazing fast Neovim framework providing solid defaults and a beautiful UI, enhancing your neovim experience.

    Project mention: My Dev Environment [CLI Tools] | dev.to | 2025-11-18

    Neovim is my daily driver for editing code and configuration files. Combined with NvChad, it becomes a fast, modern IDE with smart defaults, LSP support, treesitter syntax highlighting, and a beautiful UI. I love how customizable it is. I can tweak everything from keybindings to themes, making it fit my exact workflow. Even though it's my secondary code editor, but No.1 in CLI.

  3. LunarVim

    🌙 LunarVim is an IDE layer for Neovim. Completely free and community driven.

    Project mention: Every Developer Should Try Vim | dev.to | 2025-06-19

    The switch was hard at first, especially file management. I was so used to the file tree on the left of my editor. I tried to replicate that in Neovim with nvim-tree but it didn’t feel the same. Until I came across oil.nvim, this was a game changer for me as it made creating, renaming and moving so much easier. That was the moment that I felt I could switch. I had tried a few of the popular Neovim distros such as Lunarvim but found them too overwhelming. I personally prefer a basic setup with not too many bells and whistles (I know, I used JetBrains before but only used 10% of that editor’s capacity and had a minimal interface configured).
