logo.nvim

Extremely minimalistic intro screen for Neovim

Motivation

Neovim intro screen can be extremely buggy and forced to close automatically by plugins installed such as nvim-tree, bufferline, lualine and many more.
logo.nvim hijects no-name and directory buffer and draws a simple intro logo. If you just want a simple and lightweight startup intro that works, this plugin is for you.

Please see image.nvim to see how to install it. You need to install use GUI compatible terminal and install magick outside of vim.

Configuration

There are no configuration available.

Things to be aware of

If you have some sort of tabline plugin such as bufferline, vim.opt.showtabline will be overridden to 1. This forces display of a buffer tab even when there is only one. If you do not wanna see the tab, you can modify bufferline's configuration like the following:

require("bufferline").setup({
    options = {
        always_show_bufferline = false
    }
})

The above configuration will effectively set vim.opt.showtabline to 2, meaning the tabs will only start to display when there is more than one buffer open
