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)
### Install Neovim
### Installation

### Install External Dependencies
> **NOTE**
> [Backup](#FAQ) 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`
External Requirements:
- Basic utils: `git`, `make`, `unzip`, C Compiler (`gcc`)
- [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation)
- Language Setup:
- If want to write Typescript, you need `npm`
- If want to write Golang, you will need `go`
- etc.
> **NOTE**
> See [Windows Installation](#Windows-Installation) to double check any additional Windows notes

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
current plugin status.
If you would prefer to hide this step and run the plugin sync from the command line, you can use:
Read through the `init.lua` file in your configuration folder for more
information about extending and exploring Neovim.
```sh
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
```
### Getting Started
See [Effective Neovim: Instant IDE](https://youtu.be/stqUbv-5u2s), covering the
previous version. Note: The install via init.lua is outdated, please follow the
install instructions in this file instead. An updated video is coming soon.
### Recommended Steps

### Configuration And Extension
#### Examples of adding popularly requested plugins
* 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.
NOTE: You'll need to uncomment the line in the init.lua that turns on loading custom plugins.
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.

### 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)
* 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 an alias:

When you run Neovim using `nvim-kickstart` alias 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.
* 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.

Alternatively one can install gcc and make which don't require changing the config,
the easiest way is to use choco:
1. install [chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install)
either follow the instructions on the page or use winget,
run in cmd as **admin**:
```
winget install --accept-source-agreements chocolatey.chocolatey
```
2. install all requirements using choco, exit previous cmd and
open a new one so that choco path is set, run in cmd as **admin**:
```
choco install -y neovim git ripgrep wget fd unzip gzip mingw make
```
Then continue with the [Install Kickstart](#Install-Kickstart) step.
