These are my neovim dotfiles.
lua, neovim (as recent as possible), git, and a nerd font of your choice.
-
Node is semi-required (due to npm, see below).
-
Lua is needed for the actual configuration files as well as the plugin manager.
-
The plugin manager relies on git, alongside lua.
-
A nerd font is needed if you want icons to show up properly.
-
Npm is used for installing language servers if you're not using mason. It's not required if you are not planning on using mason, or if you've already installed the language servers you will be using.
-
Mason is a neovim plugin that manages language servers.
-
The command for accessing the package manager is Lazy (preceded by a colon as all other (neo)vim commands are).
-
The default global leader is backslash. Backslash f opens/closes Neovim-Tree.
-
The default local leader is space. This is mostly used for LSP-related things, such as fixing errors upon detection on the LSP side, or sorting imports, among other things.
-
The default compiler plugin is compiler.nvim by Zeioth. Check out the github repo for information on how to configure it to suit your needs.
-
Which-key is activated by default. Upon pushing any key, (including some modifier keys), it will show what they are bound to. Hitting backspace will go back to the root view.
