What you would learn from using a neovim addon for VS Code covers most of the first point and some of the second - VSCode Vim lets you run neovim in a headless mode that relays keypresses to it, and emulates several popular addons. It also comes without quite as much hassle as comes from the second step of learning to configure vim/neovim yourself. Most VSCode extensions work pretty well out of the box, maybe requiring you to add the path to a compiler/interpreter that is not on your PATH.
Too late
All you need is just the LSP working (with linter, formatter and diagnostics) and telescope. Seriously, telescope is the GOAT, way faster than a file tree, you end up using the filetree only to move, create and delete files/folders but if it's just for that, you might as well use the terminal instead. For the LSP, it's not only autocompletion and hints at hover but formatting and diagnostics. I use lsp-zero + null-ls + trouble. I exposed all of the keybindings on those so I can at least open my own configs for guidance. Oh yeah, having treesitter is probably a must too, and it has no keybindings on its base form.
I just recently moved from VS Code to Neovim. I tried to do that a couple of months ago but I couldn't get the configs right. Then I found NvChad and I was pulled in. I'm a customization freak, so I ended up ditching it because I was having trouble customizing its defaults and finally had success. Here are is what I learned about making that move:

This is it. One last tip is to use lazy as a package manager, it's much easier to use and very powerful. If you've seen these configs from theprimeagen, translating from packer to lazy is pretty easy.
