NeoVim Essentials

Hello everyone! This repository is inspired by chris@machine, kickstart.nvim, and NvChad. All of them have great setups but I wanted something that was the absolute bare minimum, that was well organized. So this is what I came up with! Enjoy.

Installation

Remove previous nvim installation if it exists.

rm -rf ~/.config/nvim
rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim
rm -rf ~/.cache/nvim

Then add this repo.

git clone https://github.com/Blovio/NeoVim_Essentials
mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim
mv NeoVim_Essentials/nvim/* ~/.config/nvim && rm -rf NeoVim_Essentials
