# javif89 Neovim Config

Based on [Kickstart](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim). Some of the install
instructions come from kickstart so I don't forget about any dependencies.

## Structure

I try to keep the config modular not because I want to change it all the time, but because
I want it to be easy to look through and understand.

The files are organized as such inside the `lua` folder:

`core/`: Any component of the config that I absolutely must have in any system for the rest of time.

`core/plugins`: Necessarry plugins such as mason, tree sitter and such.

`optional`: Anything that I could remove and live without.

## Installation

### Install External Dependencies

External Requirements:
- Basic utils: `git`, `make`, `unzip`, C Compiler (`gcc`)
- [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation)
- Clipboard tool (xclip/xsel/win32yank or other depending on platform)
- A [Nerd Font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/): optional, provides various icons
  - if you have it set `vim.g.have_nerd_font` in `init.lua` to true

> **NOTE**
> See [Install Recipes](#Install-Recipes) for additional Windows and Linux specific notes
> and quick install snippets
