Modern Neovim starter kit

A minimal Neovim configuration intended as a starting point for your own setup - simple, modern, and easy to extend, tailored for programming and development workflows.

Pre-requisites

• Neovim 12 or newer
• fzf
• Node.js

Features

• Uses the new built-in vim.pack plugin manager
• The entire configuration, except for the language server configurations, is defined in init.lua

Installation

Clone this configuration into ~/.config/nvim (make sure to back up your existing one first)

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

then launch Neovim

nvim

This configuration provides the following custom commands as wrappers around vim.pack:

• :PackUpdate - updates plugins
• :PackClean- removes unused plugins from the disk
• :PackSync - pin plugins to the version recorded in nvim-pack-lock.json

Test configuration (optional)

To try this configuration without affecting your current setup, clone it into a separate directory under ~/.config, for example

git clone https://github.com/vsoftco/nvim-lite ~/.config/nvim-test

Then start Neovim with

NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-test nvim
