## ⚡ Setup
### ⚙️ Requirements
Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:
- You have installed the latest version of `neovim`
- Python provider is necessary for some operations: `pip install neovim`
- Some command line tools: fd, ripgrep
- To use nvim for notes, take a look at [tdo.nvim](https://github.com/2kabhishek/tdo.nvim)
### 💻 Installation
To install `nvim` clone the repo and setup the symlink
```bash
git clone https://github.com/S4NKALP/nvim
```
On Linux and Mac
```bash
ln -sfnv $PWD/nvim $HOME/.config/nvim
```
On Windows Powershell
```powershell
New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim" -Target "$PWD\nvim" -Force
```
## 🚀 Usage
Edit files in [lua/core](./lua/core/) for tweaking [options](./lua/core/options.lua), and to add/remove [functions](./lua/core/functions.lua) and [autocmds](./lua/core/autocmd.lua)
### 📦 Plugins
To add new plugins add it to the [plugins list](./lua/plugins/list.lua)
For plugin configs you can place them in these folders based on the functionality:
- [lang](./lua/plugins/lang/): Plugins related to language features, completions, lsp, debugging etc.
- [tools](./lua/plugins/tools/): General purpose tool plugins that aid in the editing experience.
- [ui](./lua/plugins/ui/): Cosmetic plugins that make neovim pretty.
### ⌨️ Keybindings
If you want to change functionality of a core keybinding, edit [core/keys](./lua/core/keys.lua)
To add new keybindings visit the [which-key config](./lua/plugins/tools/which-key.lua)
### 🎨 User Configs
`nvim` supports a user module where you can store your custom configs, these will always override the default configs, whenever there is a clash.
To use custom configs create the file `lua/user/init.lua`, you can structure your configs as you like there.
> `lua/user/init.lua` must be present to load custom configs, `require` any custom modules in this file.
`user` module is not part of the repo, you can set up `user` module as a separate git repository while continuously receiving `nvim2k` updates.
#### 🤖 Auto Install
By default nvim will auto install a set of LSP servers and null-ls sources using mason, if you want to disable it make sure to add the following to your user module.
```lua
-- lua/user/init.lua
local user = {
auto_install = true,
}
return user
```
To setup and access other user options you can use the `get_user_config(key, default)` method in `lib.util`
Example: `local auto_install = require('lib.util').get_user_value('auto_install', true)`
## 🧑💻 Behind The Code
### 🌈 Inspiration
I have been using vim/neovim for years now, I wanted to share my config for everyone to use
### 💡 Challenges/Learnings
- Finding out the right plugins and configs!
- Setting up the initial config structure with lazy loading was tough.
