Neovim Configuration Switcher

This repository hosts scripts for easy switching between different Neovim configurations. It is designed to help users quickly switch their Neovim environment to suit various coding needs or preferences. This work is inspired by the concepts shared in this gist by Elijah Manor. We are thankful to Elijah for the inspiration and guidance provided through his work.

Contents

• nvim_install.sh: Script to install Neovim and set up the configuration switcher.
• nvim_uninstall.sh: Script to uninstall Neovim and remove the configuration switcher setup.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• zsh should be your default shell.
• git and brew must be installed on your system.
• Ensure you have fzf installed for fuzzy finding capabilities within the switcher script.

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine.

   git clone https://github.com/MohamedElashri/nvim-switcher
   cd nvim-switcher

2. Run the nvim_install.sh script to set up the Neovim configuration switcher:

   ./nvim_install.sh

3. This script will install Neovim (if not already installed), set up various aliases for Neovim configurations, and enable a function to switch configurations easily.

Usage

After installation, you can switch between different Neovim configurations by using the following aliases:

• nvim-lazy for LazyVim configuration.
• nvim-kick for Kickstart configuration.
• nvim-chad for NvChad configuration.
• nvim-astro for AstroNvim configuration.

Additionally, you can use the nvims command to invoke a fuzzy finder interface and select your desired Neovim configuration.

Uninstallation

To uninstall Neovim and remove the configuration switcher, run the nvim_uninstall.sh script:

./nvim_uninstall.sh

This will revert the changes made by the installation script, including removing any installed Neovim configurations and cleaning up environment modifications.
