Neovim configuration on Windows 10 - jdhao's blog

update: 2020-11-15, add detailed instruction for Neovim config location. TL;DR: After nearly one year of using Neovim on Windows, I find that the best experience one can get on Windows is to use GUI Neovim client such as Nvim-qt or fvim, not the terminal Nvim1. In this post, I want to share how to install and configure Neovim on Windows 102. For configurations of nvim-qt on Windows, check this post.

I just spent the last couple of weekends installing WSL2 for the first time, and trying to get neovim working reasonably with Windows Terminal. And it looks pretty good—great, actually:

nvim.exe in wt

Just curious: are there (still) known problems with nvim on Windows Terminal that I've not run into because I only recently switched from Vim 8, or:

Maybe the situation will change after Microsoft’s windows terminal become mature enough

did your prediction from four years ago simply come true? :thinking: (I'm really hoping I won't hit some 'tragic flaw' that will cause me to redo this all with nvim-qt.exe instead.)

yeah, maybe. I have not tried WSL2, but have tried windows terminal with git bash. There are some path issues (Linux vs Windows). Other than that, windows terminal works fine.

Hello I am new to this, may I ask how to enable alpha-nvim startup screen for your configuration? I can see its file but don't know how to toggle it on/enable it. Thank you.

jdhao commented 2 years ago

Hi, I have disabled alpah-nvim in my config right now, You need to install that plugin to use it. Add it to lua/plugins.lua file.

seanmamasde commented 2 years ago

Thanks man it worked. I saw it being commented out in the lua/plugins.lua file and uncommented it, works like a charm. A big fan of your curated configurations, they all look beautiful :).

jdhao commented 2 years ago

FYI, I have switched into dashboard-nvim, due to the bug of alpha-nvim.
