Has anyone tried to write a neovim config without using any plugins?

• mini.nvim

  146 3,857 9.6 Lua

  Library of 35+ independent Lua modules improving overall Neovim (version 0.7 and higher) experience with minimal effort

"Write config without using any plugins" is partially a motivation for creating mini.nvim. But I wouldn't recommend doing it if you are not enjoying creating such things or don't have enough (a lot) spare time.

• dotfiles-playbook

  3 2 7.3 Shell

  Ansible playbook with my ubuntu-based dotfiles

(For context, this is my standard config and this is the trimmed down thing I use at work, which involved a lot of downloading and zipping up files and making sure they're in the right place)

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• scratchpad

  1 0 6.9 Python

  Random scripts and documentation I've written (by Ttibsi)

• nvim-lsp-sans-plugins

  6 25 2.0 Lua

  Half decent (example) neovim configuration showing how to setup the builtin lsp client without plugins

I did, some time ago. I created the repo nvim-lsp-sans-plugins to show how to setup Neovim's LSP client without plugins, but I ended up adding a few things from my personal config. The branch 07-compat is compatible is with Neovim v0.7.

• luabundler

  3 24 0.0 TypeScript

  CLI tool for bundling several Lua files into a single file.

I wonder if a bundler would help? For example: https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/luabundler. I haven't tried it but in theory you should be able to point it at your home configuration and get a single file that includes it all.

• neovim

  1,384 76,465 10.0 Vim Script

  Vim-fork focused on extensibility and usability

  

In terms of neovim dependencies, you can download the appimage, move them over to your vm somewhere in your $PATH, chmod it and it should pretty much work.
