.config Alternatives

.config reviews and mentions

• Can anyone recommend a good github dotfiles repos for neovim that uses LazyVim as it's plugin manager?

  I've done my best to keep my config simple and sane: https://github.com/heygarrett/.config/tree/main/nvim

• "set noet" ignored in python files
  1 project | /r/neovim | 15 Mar 2023

  One option the docs don't list is using an autocommand, which is what I do because I overrule the indentation options for all file types.

• Trouble detecting shiftwidth correctly
  4 projects | /r/neovim | 26 Jan 2023

  I use a combination of guess-indent.nvim and :h listchars. Here's how I use them together in my config.

• nvim: coq vs cmp
  3 projects | /r/neovim | 13 Jan 2023

  I even wrote my own autocmd for auto-completion, which was a lot of fun and helped me learn a lot about Neovim. Together with nvim-snippy it meets all of my needs (so far).

• Show me your statusline! Big plus if you wrote it yourself :)

  I'm late to the party, but I did configure my statusline without a plugin: - Screenshot - Config

• What completion method should i try first
  3 projects | /r/neovim | 3 Sep 2022

  I added an autocmd to make it automatic.

• It’s worth it to learn how a feature works before installing a plugin claiming to make that feature better.
  1 project | /r/neovim | 28 Jul 2022

  I learned a lot, and I created my own automated workflow for sessions that I’m quite happy about. I think the best part is it may not cover every use case I encounter, which means I get to keep learning and I get to become more familiar with a tool I use daily.

• Here’s a function to grab the name of the current git branch with Lua
  1 project | /r/neovim | 27 May 2022

  I use this in my custom statusline config, which you can see here.

• Is there an equivalent to :setlocal {option}< using Lua?
  2 projects | /r/neovim | 23 Apr 2022

  This is how I currently configure my indentation. The autocmd overrides anything set by the ftplugin files during startup, and that's the easiest method I've found keep my preferences across every file type.

• Tab in vim always shifts by 2 spaces for c and c++ files.
  1 project | /r/vim | 26 Mar 2022

  I think the built-in filetype plugin files are sourced after your vimrc. I got around this by adding an autocmd to re-set my indentation preferences after the ftplugins are loaded.
