Integrations

Important

Since this Plugin should only activate necessary Integrations, only NeoVim is activated by default.

To enable other Integrations, follow the Steps below.

1. Go to the Integrations Directory
2. Remember the Plugin filename from this Directory, you want to active Integration for
3. Enable the Plugin Integration:

return {
  "dark-orchid/neovim",
  lazy = false,
  priority = 1000,
  opts = {
    integrations = {
      plugin_name_without_lua_extension = {
        enabled = true
      }
    }
  }
}

Change plugin_name_without_lua_extension with the actual Plugin filename from the given Directory, but WITHOUT lua file extension (.lua).
