A Neovim configuration built from scratch in Lua, designed to be understandable and accompanied by a video tutorial series. It demonstrates how to set up an IDE-like Neovim environment with LSP, treesitter, and plugin management.
Use cases
- learn how to configure neovim from scratch
- set up an IDE-like neovim config with LSP
- understand how nvim plugins and lua config work
- follow a video series to build a personal nvimrc
- starting point for my own neovim dotfiles
When to choose
- you want to learn Neovim configuration step by step with explanations
- you want a pinned, stable config matching the tutorial videos
- you want a base to fork into your own Neovim setup
When to avoid
- you want a fully-featured, actively maintained IDE config (use LunarVim or nvim-basic-ide instead)
- you want a minimal config without tutorial scaffolding
- you need compatibility with the latest untested plugin versions
