### Installation
|
||||
|
||||
> **NOTE**
|
||||
> [Backup](#FAQ) your previous configuration (if any exists)
|
||||
* Backup your previous configuration (if any exists)
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements:
|
||||
* Make sure to review the readmes of the plugins if you are experiencing errors. In particular:
|
||||
* [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation) is required for multiple [telescope](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim#suggested-dependencies) pickers.
|
||||
* See [Windows Installation](#Windows-Installation) if you have trouble with `telescope-fzf-native`
|
||||
### Archive Installation
|
||||
* On the home/landing page for the project find the blue "<> CODE" button click it and select Local > Download ZIP.
|
||||
* Extract the archive to:
|
||||
`~/.config/nvim` (Linux)
|
||||
`~/.config/nvim` (MacOS)
|
||||
`%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\` (Windows)
|
||||
* Ensure your extraction method did not extract with a parent folder. For example in ~/.config/nvim you should have init.lua not another folder called kickstart.nvim.
|
||||
|
||||
Neovim's configurations are located under the following paths, depending on your OS:
|
||||
### Git Clone Installation
|
||||
* From a terminal cd/dir to:
|
||||
`~/.config/nvim` (Linux)
|
||||
`~/.config/nvim` (MacOS)
|
||||
`%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\` (Windows)
|
||||
|
||||
| OS | PATH |
|
||||
| :- | :--- |
|
||||
| Linux | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
|
||||
| MacOS | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
|
||||
| Windows | `%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\` |
|
||||
* Run: `git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git ~/.config/nvim` OR: `gh repo clone nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim`
|
||||
* Run Neovim (from terminal or shortcut) and allow lazy.nvim to download files and set up the basics.
|
||||
* Once the setup is complete, restart Neovim.
|
||||
* **You're ready to go!**
|
||||
|
||||
Clone kickstart.nvim:
|
||||
* (Recommended/Optional) Fork this repo (so that you have your own copy that you can modify).
|
||||
* Clone the kickstart repo into `$HOME/.config/nvim/` (Linux/Mac) or `%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\` (Windows)
|
||||
* If you don't want to include it as a git repo, you can just clone it and then move the files to this location
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# on Linux and Mac
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"/nvim
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# on Windows
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git %userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Post Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Start Neovim
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
nvim
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `Lazy` plugin manager will start automatically on the first run and install the configured plugins - as can be seen in the introduction video. After the installation is complete you can press `q` to close the `Lazy` UI and **you are ready to go**! Next time you run nvim `Lazy` will no longer show up.
|
||||
|
||||
If you would prefer to hide this step and run the plugin sync from the command line, you can use:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended Steps
|
||||
|
||||
[Fork](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo) this repo (so that you have your own copy that you can modify) and then installing you can install to your machine using the methods above.
|
||||
|
||||
> **NOTE**
|
||||
> Your fork's url will be something like this: `https://github.com/<your_github_username>/kickstart.nvim.git`
|
||||
Additional system requirements:
|
||||
- Make sure to review the readmes of the plugins if you are experiencing errors. In particular:
|
||||
- [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation) is required for multiple [telescope](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim#suggested-dependencies) pickers.
|
||||
- See [Windows Installation](#Windows-Installation) if you have trouble with `telescope-fzf-native`

* You should back it up, then delete all files associated with it.
|
||||
* This includes your existing init.lua and the neovim files in `~/.local` which can be deleted with `rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/`
|
||||
* You may also want to look at the [migration guide for lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim#-migration-guide)
|
||||
* Can I keep my existing configuration in parallel to kickstart?
|
||||
* Yes! You can use [NVIM_APPNAME](https://neovim.io/doc/user/starting.html#%24NVIM_APPNAME)`=nvim-NAME` to maintain multiple configurations. For example you can install the kickstart configuration in `~/.config/nvim-kickstart` and create a script `~/bin/nvim-kickstart`:
|
||||
```
|
||||
#!/bin/sh
|
||||
exec env NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-kickstart nvim "$@"
|
||||
```
|
||||
When you run Neovim with `nvim-kickstart` it will use the alternative config directory and the matching local directory: `~/.local/share/nvim-kickstart`. You can apply this approach to any Neovim distribution that you would like to try out.
|

* What if I want to "uninstall" this configuration:

* Current iteration of kickstart (coming soon)
|
||||
* Here is one about the previous iteration of kickstart: [video introduction to Kickstart.nvim](https://youtu.be/stqUbv-5u2s). Note the install via init.lua no longer works as specified. Please follow the install instructions in this file instead as they're up to date.
|

* Why is the kickstart `init.lua` a single file? Wouldn't it make sense to split it into multiple files?
|
||||
* The main purpose of kickstart is to serve as a teaching tool and a reference

configuration that someone can easily `git clone` as a basis for their own.
|

As you progress in learning Neovim and Lua, you might consider splitting `init.lua`
|

into smaller parts. A fork of kickstart that does this while maintaining the exact
