Editors installation

Prerequisites

The following packages need to be installed

Installation

  1. Clone the repository.
mkdir -p ~/.config/

## Clone the repository to ~/.config/nvim
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/aswinkarthik93/neovim-dotfiles.git ~/.config/nvim

## Open nvim
nvim
  1. Nvim will automatically install Plugins. It will take some time to finish.
  • For Installing new plugins, run :PlugInstall within the editor.
  • For Updating the plugins, run :PlugUpdate within the editor.
  • The default theme is NeoSolarized which is a Solarized dark theme and will work post plugin installation.
  1. Post installation if there are issues, use :CheckHealth. Neovim will do a health check and report on what is missing and how to fix it.
