My Neovim Config

This is a fork of the excellent Neovim Kickstart configuration. I highly suggest starting there and then customizing your configuration from there. Be sure to also watch The Only Video You Need to Get Started with Neovim.

Installation

Here are my steps (this is for a Mac, which is primarily what I use):

• brew install neovim
• Open terminal
• mkdir .config and/or cd .config
• git clone [email protected]:kensodemann/recreation-planner.git nvim

That is pretty much it. Next time I start nvim everything should load.

Configuration Notes

There are a few quirks or manual steps in order for me to set up Neovim entirely.

Tailwind CSS

I use the VS Code extension for this. It is easy to install via :LspInstall tailwindcss, I just need to remember to actually do it... 🤓

AI Agents

Current

I have decided to subscribe to GitHub Copilot because it seems well worth the $100 / year. I am using the following two plugins for the integration:

• zbirenbaum/copilot.lua: Used for insertions. Most important hotkey: <C-i> to insert the current suggestion.
• CopilotC-Nvim/CopilotChat.nvim: Used for chat mode. Use <space>cc for chat mode, <space>ct to generate tests, and <space>ce to explain some code.

I have not integrated Copilot with "blink" (part of the suggestion system). Using the "ghost" text and <C-i> inserting it works really well, so I am going to stick with that for now.

Previous

I was using gp.nvim with free-tier Open AI and Gemini API keys. For paid tier, it looks like Claude may be a good option but first let's see if I run out of resources with the free tiers.

I could also use this with Copilot, but I really like how the Copilot plugins I am using right now work OOTB, and there is a lot less configuration required, so I am likely to stick with that. Just leaving this noted here in case I run into limitations.
