Intro

Recently I got no motivation to code, mainly because I got no projects idea while also struggling finding a new job in my city. Then I stumble upon Takuya Matsuyama's (craftzdog) vim setup. I've always like the aesthetic setup he has so I decided to try neovim and configure it for my self. So this is my setup.

Ingredients

Here is the ingredients for my neovim setup right now, it will be update from time to time.

• Neovim > = 0.7
• wbthomason/packer.nvim a neovim plugin manager.
• olimorris/onedarkpro.nvim Theme for neovim that I use.
• nvim-lualine/lualine.nvim A blazing fast and easy to configure neovim statusline plugin written in pure lua.
• williamboman/mason.nvim Portable package manager for Neovim that runs everywhere Neovim runs. Easily install and manage LSP servers, DAP servers, linters, and formatters.
• williamboman/mason-lspconfig.nvim Extension to mason.nvim that makes it easier to use lspconfig with mason.nvim.
• nvim/neovim-lspconfig Quickstart configs for Nvim LSP.
• hrsh7th/nvim-cmp A completion plugin for neovim coded in Lua.
• hrsh7th/cmp-nvim-lsp nvim-cmp source for neovim builtin LSP client.
• L3MON4D3/LuaSnip Snippet Engine for Neovim written in Lua.
• rafamadriz/friendly-snippets Set of preconfigured snippets for different languages.
• saadparwaiz1/cmp_luasnip luasnip completion source for nvim-cmp.
• nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim is a highly extendable fuzzy finder over lists.
• nvim-telescope/telescope-file-browser.nvim File browser extension for telescope.nvim.
• lewis6991/gitsigns.nvim Git intergration for buffer.
• akinsho/bufferline.nvim A snazzy bufferline for neovim.
• nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter Nvim Treesitter configurations and abstraction layer.
• windwp/nvim-autopairs Autopair for neovim written in lua.
• windwp/nvim-autotag Use treesitter to auto close and auto rename html tag.
• lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim Indent guides for neovim.

You can see my dotfiles repo here on file on my github repo

Everything is in the repo, but I will compile and show some of my keybind setup here.

-- nvim tree mapping
km.set('n', '<c-n>', ':NvimTreeFindFileToggle<CR>')


-- Moving line mapping
km.set('n', 'J', ':m .+1<CR>')
km.set('n', 'K', ':m .-2<CR>')
-- moving multiple line mapping
km.set('v', 'K', ":m '<-2<CR>gv=gv")
km.set('v', 'J', ":m '>+1<CR>gv=gv")

-- bufferline mapping for navigate buffer
vim.keymap.set('n', '<Tab>', '<Cmd>BufferLineCycleNext<CR>')
vim.keymap.set('n', '<leader><Tab>', '<Cmd>bufferLIneCyclePrev<CR>')

I have been trying to adopt neovim since 2022, but since it is really hard i had to constantly switch back to vscode. And now since that I finally managed to at least geting comfortable with neovim, I can see an improvement in speed. I no longer need to touch my mouse when writing code and have super usefull plugins and keybinding that make things faster and easier.

One thing I missed though, I can't find my favorite theme called mayukai, I will probably try to learn how to port it from vscode if I should.
