init.lua

Confuguration scripts for my neovim setup.

Can you use the config?

Absolutely! Note however, that I am just getting started with neovim. The configurations might be inefficient or overly tailored to me.

Motivation

I stumbled upon this highly efficient, experienced programmer on twitch. He constantly tells his viewers to try out new stuff and "go learn something". So I ended up trying neovim: a simple, efficient, moddable text editor that our twitch streamer is using. Shoutout to @ThePrimeagen!

Here are the reasons why I start using neovim:

• by configuring neovim, I learn about the underlying tools and pieces used by modern IDEs and VSCode
• neovim features a huge set of keybinds and uses a "keyboard first" approach that will help me get more efficient with coding in general
• neovim runs in the terminal, meaning I also improve at the command-line and its available commands
• neovim comes with some amazing plugins I haven't seen before, e.g. fuzzy-finding or treesitter-based syntax highlighting
