• A clipboard tool is necessary for the integration with the system clipboard (see :help clipboard-tool for supported solutions)
• Terminal with true color support (for the default theme, otherwise it is dependent on the theme you are using) [2]
• Optional Requirements:
  • ripgrep - live grep telescope search (<leader>fw)
  • lazygit - git ui toggle terminal (<leader>tl or <leader>gg)
  • go DiskUsage() - disk usage toggle terminal (<leader>tu)
  • bottom - process viewer toggle terminal (<leader>tt)
  • Python - python repl toggle terminal (<leader>tp)
  • Node - node repl toggle terminal (<leader>tn)

[1] All downloadable Nerd Fonts contain icons which are used by AstroNvim. Install the Nerd Font of your choice to your system and in your terminal emulator settings, set its font face to that Nerd Font. If you are using AstroNvim on a remote system via SSH, you do not need to install the font on the remote system.

[2] Note when using default theme: For MacOS, the default terminal does not have true color support. You will need to use iTerm2, Kitty, WezTerm, or another terminal emulator that has true color support.
