nvim

My personal nvim configuration. Based on:

• nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim and dam9000/kickstart-modular.nvim
• AstroNvim/AstroNvim and AstroNvim/astrocommunity
• LazyVim/LazyVim
• tomodachi94/dotfiles

Plugins are organized according to category from NeovimCraft like astro-community

My preference is for opinionated plugins that require minimal configuration.

• Accordingly, I've tried and removed:
  • Bars and lines: barbar
  • Buffers: early-retirement.nvim for auto-closing deleted buffers
  • Editing Support: autopairs, nvim-ts-autotag, cmp-spell, omni, etc., Obsidian
  • Git: octo.nvim for Github, vim-fugitive, (most of) gitsigns
  • LSP: lsp-saga
  • Marks: harpoon
  • Motions: neotab for tabbing out
  • Programming Language Support: markdown-preview
  • Session: auto-session
  • Utility: noice, structlog, dressing
• I've replaced:
  • reticle with colorful-winsep
  • indent-blankline with hlchunk (which was later removed)
  • luacheck with selene
  • buffer-manager with telescope
  • hlargs with existing behavior from language LSPs
  • leap.nvim and alternative motion plugins with flash.nvim
  • quick-scope with flash.nvim
  • smart-splits with <c-w> builtin

MacOS (and Linux) Install
