Nice work !

The nice thing with neovim is that people got together to make Neovim distributions. I'd recommend starting with one and you will learn by tuning it to your preferences because if you have to get some work done, this will take a lot of your time imho.

I still use vanilla vim + ALE linter + ctags + makefiles for simple C/C++ projects but once you start to get into webdev with ten different syntaxes and tools, it gets hard to keep up.

But if you have the time and curiosity to explore of course, it's worth it




Hey! Thank you! I actually wanted to start out with NvChad but then I became quickly overwhelmed with how many things are added that I do not know of. I also do not mind configuring nvim for hours, it's like tuning your car, the process is the hobby, not the result! I also found that I can incrementally then understand each added plugin and I am also more aware what is part of the config. But it's worth noting what you say about the webdev part... let's see if I can keep up :D
