NoeVim¶

Installation¶

According this link Install nvim

curl -LO https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/latest/download/nvim-linux64.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf /opt/nvim
sudo tar -C /opt -xzf nvim-linux64.tar.gz

Then add this to your shell config (~/.bashrc, ~/. zshrc, ...) or create soft link

sudo ln -s /opt/nvim-linux64/bin/nvim /usr/bin/nvim

Note: Be careful to have installed last version of 'nvim'

Configuration¶

create neovim config path at first

mkdir ~/.config/nvim/

Better way for your config is lazy¶

Make a backup of your current Neovim files

# required
mv ~/.config/nvim{,.bak}

# optional but recommended
mv ~/.local/share/nvim{,.bak}
mv ~/.local/state/nvim{,.bak}
mv ~/.cache/nvim{,.bak}

Clone the starter

git clone https://github.com/LazyVim/starter ~/.config/nvim

Remove the .git folder, so you can add it to your own repo later

rm -rf ~/.config/nvim/.git

Start Neovim!

nvim
