Do I need NeoVIM?

• kickstart.nvim

  284 14,592 9.0 Lua

  A launch point for your personal nvim configuration

  

After you’ve gotten used to that, I would start using Neovim using kickstart.nvim as a base and building your config off of that. It is a fantastic starting point for your first config and has LOTS of comments to help you understand what is going on.

• lazy.nvim

  131 11,499 9.4 Lua

  💤 A modern plugin manager for Neovim

It is possible to manage plugins yourself, but I would recommend a plugin manager such as Lazy (https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim). There are many more plugins that most would argue are virtually essential, but these should at least be able to get you some autocompletion and highlighting without too much messing about. Be sure to read the install instructions for each of these plugins!
