Neovim config

Neovim use a different configuration file from Vim. You need to create a file named init.vim under the directory $HOME/config/nvim (if this directory does not exist, just create one). All configurations can be put into this file. Most of the configuration options for Neovim are the same with Vim. You can copy your vim configurations if you have used Vim before.

This is my Neovim configuration for all the platforms I use (Linux, Windows and macOS). init.vim is the config file for terminal Neovim, and ginit.vim is the additional config file for GUI client of Neovim (I am using neovim-qt for now on Windows). My configurations are heavily documented to make it as clear as possible.

First of all, the neovim config file is named init.vim regardless of your system. Second, based on Neovim official documentation, you should put init.vim under the directory ~/AppData/Local/nvim on Windows. To find here that directory is exactly, use the command :echo stdpath(‘config’) inside Neovim. If this directory does not exist, do not worry. Just create it and put your config file there.

Neovim will run the last script that meets those conditions. If you go around and check other people’s code you’ll notice that they use a . as a path separator. For example, let’s say they have the file ~/.config/nvim/lua/usermod/settings.lua. If they want to call settings.lua they do this. require (‘ usermod.settings ‘) Is a very common convention. Just remember that the dot is a path separator.

Even though by default neovim is a really good one, it lacks some features like code completion.We will be fixing these things through the config file, which is located at ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

What is Neovim? Nvim config without using plugins. Change the escape key to jk; Give your document window a title; Tabs vs spaces. Use spaces. Soft wrapping, it’s complicated. Neovim can only soft wrap to the width of the current window; Use vscode-neovim to soft wrap Markdown documents; Use the system clipboard; Enable the spell checker

To include some basics in your config first create a directory called general and a file called settings.vim. 3. 1. mkdir ~/.config/nvim/general. 2. . 3. touch ~/.config/nvim/general/settings.vim. Here is every general setting I use with a brief explanation:
