Neovim from scratch

This repository and accompanying tutorials outline the building blocks of modern Neovim for your personalized development environment. Each video is associated with a branch so checkout the one you are interested in, you can follow along with this playlist.

General Neovim support is available on our Matrix chat.

Try out this config

This config requires Neovim v0.8.0. Please upgrade if you're on an earlier version of the editor.

Clone the repository into the correct location (make a backup your current nvim directory if you want to keep it).

git clone https://github.com/NexushasTaken/nvim-config ~/.config/nvim

Run nvim in your terminal and wait for the plugins to be installed.

NOTE Mason is used to install and manage LSP servers, DAP servers, linters, and formatters via the :Mason command.

Get healthy

Open nvim and enter the following:

:checkhealth

You'll probably notice you don't have support for copy/paste also that python and node haven't been setup

So let's fix that

First we'll fix copy/paste

  • On mac pbcopy should be builtin

  • On Ubuntu

    sudo apt install xsel
    
  • On Arch Linux

    sudo pacman -S xsel
    
  • Wayland users

Upgrade to Neovim v0.8.0

Assuming you built from source, cd into the folder where you cloned neovim and run the following commands.

git pull
make distclean && make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
git checkout v0.8.0
sudo make install
nvim -v
