# α alpha-nvim
`alpha` is a fast and fully programmable greeter for neovim.
share or snipe some custom themes @ https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim/discussions/16
## Quick Start
#### vim-startify theme
EXAMPLES
With [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim):
```lua
{
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
dependencies = { 'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons' },
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.startify'.config)
end
};
```
With packer:
```lua
use {
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
requires = { 'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons' },
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.startify'.config)
end
}
```
..or using paq:
```lua
require "paq" {
"goolord/alpha-nvim";
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons";
}
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.startify'.config)
```
#### dashboard-nvim theme
EXAMPLES
With [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim):
```lua
{
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
end
};
```
With packer:
```lua
use {
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
end
}
```
..or using paq:
```lua
require "paq" {
"goolord/alpha-nvim";
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons";
}
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
```
#### Theta theme
EXAMPLES
With [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim):
```lua
{
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
dependencies = {
'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons',
'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
},
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.theta'.config)
end
};
```
With packer:
```lua
use {
'goolord/alpha-nvim',
requires = {
'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons',
'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
},
config = function ()
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
end
}
```
..or using paq:
```lua
require "paq" {
"goolord/alpha-nvim";
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons";
'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim';
}
require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
```

this theme makes some assumptions about your default keybindings
to customize the buttons, see :h alpha-example
## Elevator pitch
alpha is really a general purpose neovim ui library with some conveniences for writing a greeter ui.
it has a functional, data-oriented api design. themes are expressed entirely as data, which is what makes
alpha "fully programmable". alpha is also the fastest greeter I've benchmarked (which is why I daily drive it myself!).
## Profiling Results
- using https://github.com/lewis6991/impatient.nvim
- only config! doesn't measure drawing, some startup plugins won't measure drawing either
