🚀 Installation

Prerequisites

• Neovim (v0.9.0 or later)
• Git

System Dependencies

For optimal performance, particularly for the search features in Telescope:

• ripgrep (rg): Required for the fast and recursive file content search (:Telescope live_grep). This must be installed as a separate command-line tool and be accessible in your system's PATH.

Windows Users Note If you are on Windows, you may need a POSIX-like environment like MinGW (part of MSYS2) to ensure external command-line tools like ripgrep and others used by Neovim's LSP/linting system function correctly.

Installation Steps

Neovim's configuration directory depends on your operating system:

• Linux/macOS: ~/.config/nvim
• Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\nvim (or $env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim in PowerShell)

1. Backup Existing Config (Optional):

   • Linux/macOS: mv ~/.config/nvim{,.bak}
   • Windows (PowerShell): Move-Item $env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim $env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim.bak

2. Clone the Repository: Clone this repository into the appropriate Neovim configuration directory.

   • Linux/macOS:

     git clone https://github.com/eipna/Neovim-Config ~/.config/nvim

   • Windows (PowerShell/CMD):

     git clone https://github.com/eipna/Neovim-Config $env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim
     

3. Launch Neovim:

   nvim

   On the first launch, Lazy will automatically download and install all required plugins. You may need to run nvim a second time for everything to fully settle.

⚙️ Customization

All configuration files are written in Lua.

The structure mirrors your setup:

• init.lua: The main entry point for Neovim.
• lua/vim-configs.lua: Contains all core Vim options and global settings.
• lua/plugins.lua: Defines which plugins Lazy should install.
• lua/plugins/: Contains individual configuration files (e.g., alpha.lua, telescope.lua) that configure the corresponding plugin.
