Setup

1. Copy the configuration files

Copy these configuration files into your <Neovim configuration directory>/lua/filibit/

OS	Neovim configuration directory
Unix	~/.config/nvim/
Windows	~/AppData/Local/nvim/

2. Load the configuration

Neovim looks for the initial configuration file in the following order

1. <Neovim configuration directory>/init.vim
2. <Neovim configuration directory>/init.lua

This configuration is written in Lua language. If init.vim file exists, remove it, or rename it.

Create a file, if missing: <Neovim configuration directory>/init.lua with the following content:

require("lua/filibit")

This directory structure allows easy switching between different user configurations.

If you want to create your own configuration, just create a new directory and load that directory instead of filibit.

3. Install the plugin manager

This configuration uses Vim Plug as a plugin manager. Installation instructions are here

There are also other plugin managers for Neovim.

To use a different plugin manager, these configuration files will need to be updated

4. First time actions

1. Start Neovim neovim
2. Install plugins :PlugInstall
3. Reopen Neovim: :q, then neovim
4. Install language servers and formatters :MasonInstall
5. Reopen Neovim inside some project to verify the configuration: :q, then neovim <path-to-some-project>
