If you are on a brand new machine, use the automated setup script to install Neovim, system dependencies (ripgrep, build tools), and synced plugins in one go.
git clone git@github.com:yi-json/nvim.git ~/.config/nvim
cd ~/.config/nvim
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
nvimNote: The script does not include the Nerd Font - it needs to be downloaded manually
If you prefer a manual setup, ensure the following are installed:
- Neovim (v0.9.0+):
pacman -S neovim(arch),brew install neovim(macOS), orapt install neovim(ubuntu/debian). - Ripgrep: Essential for Telescope fuzzy finding.
- Build Tools:
gccorclangfor Treesitter parsers. - Nerd Font: Required for icons. JetBrainsMono Nerd Font is recommended.
This config follows a modular structure where each plugin has its own dedicated configuration file.
