## Why?
Modern Vim distributions are really huge and bloated with way too many fancy
features that you won't ever use or need, for example directory trees like Nerd
tree, you don't need a tree, you can view a project structure with fzf which is
faster and has search. Another example is
[ThinkVim](https://github.com/hardcoreplayers/ThinkVim) has a separate extension
for formatting while also having ALE which can do that as well, this double
functionality is very common, thats one of the things this distro avoids, KISS!
## Features
- Single file (you don't want your dotfiles to be all Vim script)
- Super minimal (~400 lines)
- Super fast startup (less than 40ms!)
- Lazy loading plugins
- Highly customizable
- Beautiful [Material ocean](https://github.com/material-ocean/Material-Ocean)
color scheme
- Various IDE features via [coc.nvim](https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim)
- Smooth Scrolling (its really smooth!)
- Fully integrated with fzf (see [demos](#demos))
- Live Markdown preview
- Simple, Intuitive shortcuts
### Supported Languages
Neovim provides support for a wide range of languages by default. For more
languages install [vim-polyglot](https://github.com/sheerun/vim-polyglot).
## Requirements
- Linux (not tested on other platforms)
- Neovim (you can try regular Vim)
- Properly set up environment
## Setup
To check if your current environment is correctly set up run `:CheckHealth`.
### Environment
- python3: `pip3 install --user pynvim`
- javascript: `yarn global add neovim`
### Tools
- [Any patched nerd font](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/)
- [tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux) (not required but recommended)
- [prettier](https://prettier.io/)
- clang (much better C and C++)
- [fuzzy finder (fzf)](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf)
- [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep)
- [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat)
- [black](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for python formatting
## Installation
After installing the requirements:
- `git clone https://github.com/Blacksuan19/init.nvim ~/.config/nvim`
- Start `nvim` and it will do the rest
- press enter if there are any errors (don't worry its fine)
## Plugins
Thanks to vim-plug the plugins are lazy loaded (anything that is not needed for
the current buffer is not loaded) for example opening a python file means all
other non python related plugins are not loaded. Coc extensions are lazy loaded
as well, they work the same way as vim-plug plugins.

## Customizations
Since the file is pretty small its very easy to interpret by even those who
don't have any knowledge about vim script, most of the sections have comments
about their functionality, and can be removed, commented out or swapped easily,
there are some defaults that are not everyone's cup of tea (after all this is
highly opinionated).
- **Disabling Plugins:** comment out the plug's 'Plugin/name' line from config
and also remove the plugin settings
- **Disabling CoC Plugins:** comment out the plugin from `coc_global_extensions`
variable and uninstall it via `:CocUninstall` plugin name
- **Installing CoC plugins:** open `:CocList` and search for marketplace, you
can find all available plugins here
- **Adding Bookmarks:** to add bookmarks to the start page, find
`g:startify_bookmarks` in `init.nvim` and add the new bookmark just like the
already present ones, the dictionary key is the shortcut you will use to
quickly jump to that folder from the start page and the value is the path to
targeted folder
for more customizations read throw the config file, there are comments
everywhere and its easy to interpret, you can also checkout the linked github
page for each plugin for even more options.

## Credits
All the Credit goes to the Neovim team for making most of the extensions
possible and better (async), and to all the plugins developers, and the hackers
who spend time Finding good shortcuts and tricks to make this an even more
superb experience.
