## ⚙️ My Neovim Configuration

## Introduction

This is my personal neovim configuration and it's unlikely to be perfect
4+
for your use case.

* *Neovimacs*: modeless editing support, with common Emacs bindings in insert mode
10+
* *Esc*: to toggle between insert (emacs bindings) and normal (neovim mode)
11+
* *Tabs*: Prev (F1), Next (F2), New (F3), and Close (F4) to jump around
12+
* *Movement*: Arrows and Tabs (and, yes, I know)
13+
* *Batteries*: Python LSP, completion, treesitter

That's it! Lazy will install all the plugins you have. Use `:Lazy` to view
100-
current plugin status. Hit `q` to close the window.
101-
102-
Read through the `init.lua` file in your configuration folder for more
103-
information about extending and exploring Neovim. That also includes
104-
examples of adding popularly requested plugins.

### FAQ
112-
113-
* What should I do if I already have a pre-existing neovim configuration?
114-
* You should back it up and then delete all associated files.
115-
* This includes your existing init.lua and the neovim files in `~/.local`
116-
which can be deleted with `rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/`
117-
* Can I keep my existing configuration in parallel to kickstart?
118-
* Yes! You can use [NVIM_APPNAME](https://neovim.io/doc/user/starting.html#%24NVIM_APPNAME)`=nvim-NAME`
119-
to maintain multiple configurations. For example, you can install the kickstart
120-
configuration in `~/.config/nvim-kickstart` and create an alias:
121-
```
122-
alias nvim-kickstart='NVIM_APPNAME="nvim-kickstart" nvim'
123-
```
124-
When you run Neovim using `nvim-kickstart` alias it will use the alternative
125-
config directory and the matching local directory
126-
`~/.local/share/nvim-kickstart`. You can apply this approach to any Neovim
127-
distribution that you would like to try out.
128-
* What if I want to "uninstall" this configuration:
129-
* See [lazy.nvim uninstall](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim#-uninstalling) information
130-
* Why is the kickstart `init.lua` a single file? Wouldn't it make sense to split it into multiple files?
131-
* The main purpose of kickstart is to serve as a teaching tool and a reference
132-
configuration that someone can easily use to `git clone` as a basis for their own.
133-
As you progress in learning Neovim and Lua, you might consider splitting `init.lua`
134-
into smaller parts. A fork of kickstart that does this while maintaining the
135-
same functionality is available here:
136-
* [kickstart-modular.nvim](https://github.com/dam9000/kickstart-modular.nvim)
137-
* Discussions on this topic can be found here:
138-
* [Restructure the configuration](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/issues/218)
139-
* [Reorganize init.lua into a multi-file setup](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/pull/473)
