# kickstart.nvim
https://github.com/kdheepak/kickstart.nvim/assets/1813121/f3ff9a2b-c31f-44df-a4fa-8a0d7b17cf7b
### Introduction
## Introduction
A starting point for Neovim that is:
* Small
* Single-file (with examples of moving to multi-file)
* Documented
* Modular
* Single-file
* Completely Documented
This repo is meant to be used by **YOU** to begin your Neovim journey; remove the things you don't use and add what you miss.
**NOT** a Neovim distribution, but instead a starting point for your configuration.
Kickstart.nvim targets *only* the latest ['stable'](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/tag/stable) and latest ['nightly'](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/tag/nightly) of Neovim. If you are experiencing issues, please make sure you have the latest versions.
## Installation
Distribution Alternatives:
- [LazyVim](https://www.lazyvim.org/): A delightful distribution maintained by @folke (the author of lazy.nvim, the package manager used here)

| Linux | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
| MacOS | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
| Windows (cmd)| `%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\` |
| Windows (powershell)| `$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\nvim\` |
| Linux, MacOS | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
| Windows (cmd)| `%localappdata%\nvim\` |
| Windows (powershell)| `$env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim\` |
Clone kickstart.nvim:
#### Recommended Step
[Fork](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo) this repo
so that you have your own copy that you can modify, then install by cloning the
fork to your machine using one of the commands below, depending on your OS.
> **NOTE**
> Your fork's URL will be something like this:
> `https://github.com/<your_github_username>/kickstart.nvim.git`
You likely want to remove `lazy-lock.json` from your fork's `.gitignore` file
too - it's ignored in the kickstart repo to make maintenance easier, but it's
[recommended to track it in version control](https://lazy.folke.io/usage/lockfile).
#### Clone kickstart.nvim
> **NOTE**
> If following the recommended step above (i.e., forking the repo), replace
> `nvim-lua` with `<your_github_username>` in the commands below
<details><summary> Linux and Mac </summary>
```sh
# on Linux and Mac
git clone git@github.com:razvgrecu/kickstart.nvim.git "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"/nvim
```

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.
That's it! Lazy will install all the plugins you have. Use `:Lazy` to view
the current plugin status. Hit `q` to close the window.
If you would prefer to hide this step and run the plugin sync from the command line, you can use:
#### Read The Friendly Documentation
```sh
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
```
Read through the `init.lua` file in your configuration folder for more
information about extending and exploring Neovim. That also includes
examples of adding popularly requested plugins.
### 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`
### Configuration And Extension
* Inside of your copy, feel free to modify any file you like! It's your copy!
* Feel free to change any of the default options in `init.lua` to better suit your needs.
* For adding plugins, there are 3 primary options:
* Add new configuration in `lua/custom/plugins/*` files, which will be auto sourced using `lazy.nvim` (uncomment the line importing the `custom/plugins` directory in the `init.lua` file to enable this)
* Modify `init.lua` with additional plugins.
* Include the `lua/kickstart/plugins/*` files in your configuration.
You can also merge updates/changes from the repo back into your fork, to keep up-to-date with any changes for the default configuration.
#### Example: Adding an autopairs plugin
In the file: `lua/custom/plugins/autopairs.lua`, add:
```lua
-- File: lua/custom/plugins/autopairs.lua
return {
"windwp/nvim-autopairs",
-- Optional dependency
dependencies = { 'hrsh7th/nvim-cmp' },
config = function()
require("nvim-autopairs").setup {}
-- If you want to automatically add `(` after selecting a function or method
local cmp_autopairs = require('nvim-autopairs.completion.cmp')
local cmp = require('cmp')
cmp.event:on(
'confirm_done',
cmp_autopairs.on_confirm_done()
)
end,
}
```
> [!NOTE]
> For more information about a particular plugin check its repository's documentation.
This will automatically install [windwp/nvim-autopairs](https://github.com/windwp/nvim-autopairs) and enable it on startup. For more information, see documentation for [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim).
### Getting Started
#### Example: Adding a file tree plugin
In the file: `lua/custom/plugins/filetree.lua`, add:
```lua
-- Unless you are still migrating, remove the deprecated commands from v1.x
vim.cmd([[ let g:neo_tree_remove_legacy_commands = 1 ]])
return {
"nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
version = "*",
dependencies = {
"nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
"nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons", -- not strictly required, but recommended
"MunifTanjim/nui.nvim",
},
config = function ()
require('neo-tree').setup {}
end,
}
```
This will install the tree plugin and add the command `:Neotree` for you. You can explore the documentation at [neo-tree.nvim](https://github.com/nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim) for more information.
### Contribution
Pull-requests are welcome. The goal of this repo is not to create a Neovim configuration framework, but to offer a starting template that shows, by example, available features in Neovim. Some things that will not be included:
* Custom language server configuration (null-ls templates)
* Theming beyond a default colorscheme necessary for LSP highlight groups
Each PR, especially those which increase the line count, should have a description as to why the PR is necessary.

### FAQ
* What should I do if I already have a pre-existing neovim configuration?
* 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)

* You should back it up and then delete all associated files.
* This includes your existing init.lua and the Neovim files in `~/.local`
which can be deleted with `rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/`
* 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`:
* 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 an alias:
```
#!/bin/sh
exec env NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-kickstart nvim "$@"
alias nvim-kickstart='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:
* See [lazy.nvim uninstall](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim#-uninstalling) information
* Are there any cool videos about this plugin?
* 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.
* See [lazy.nvim uninstall](https://lazy.folke.io/usage#-uninstalling) information
* 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
into smaller parts. A fork of kickstart that does this while maintaining the
same functionality is available here:
