What is it ?

• MinimaNvim is a minimalist neovim configuration designed to offer a solid foundation for users looking to enhance their neovim experience. Built using Lua, it focuses on providing a highly opinionated yet flexible base configuration.
• This single file configuration is meticulously documented with clear and concise comments, offering users a comprehensive overview of each block of code. With this approach, understanding the purpose and functionality of different code sections becomes effortless.
• Easily experiment and evolve the configuration according to your preferences. Whether you are a seasoned neovim user or just getting started, MinimaNvim provides a lightweight and customizable solution to streamline your editing workflow.

What is neovim ? Any why bother configurig it ?

It is an editor just like notepad or gedit. What's special about neovim is that it is a modal text editor that is designed to be fast and efficient. And you can extend its functionality using plugins, and hence it makes up for a great programming editor since you can add the functionalities that "you" want, and ultimately create your PDE ( personalized development environment ).

How to use it ?

• Install neovim.
• Backup current nvim and shared folder.

  mv ~/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim.bak
  mv ~/.local/share/nvim ~/.local/share/nvim.bak

• Clone this repo

  git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/commitsovercoffee/minima-nvim ~/.config/nvim

• Open neovim. ( it may show black screen for a second or two )
• All packages will be automatically installed.

Mason package not working ?

After installing packages using ":mason" you will need to add that package in the config.

• To setup lsp follow these steps.
• To setup linter, formatter etc follow these steps.
