An attempt to make neovim (cli version) as functional as an IDE while being very eyecandy.

Screenshots -

Very Useful lua plugins used in my config -

lspkind-nvim

This tiny plugin adds vscode-like pictograms to neovim built-in lsp completion items :

nvim-tree.lua

fast file tree :

telescope-nvim -

A fuzzy file finder, picker, sorter, previewer and much more:

indent-blankline.nvim -

adds indentline :

galaxyline -

fastest statusline plugin I've used so far:

nvim-bufferline.lua -

As a top bufferline like thing which lets me handle tabs like switching, closing tabs.

nvim-web-devicons -

Lua fork of vim devicons which lets me change icons of filetypes

nvim-treesitter

Better syntax highlighting for programming languages ( my config just has html,css,js support for now ).

without / with Treesitter :

Features

• File navigation with Nvimtree
• mouse works
• managing tabs with bufferline
• autosave
• icons on nvimtree , telescope , bufferline/statusline and almost everywhere! with nvim-web-devicons
• minimal status line ( galaxyline)
• gitsigns (colored bars for git in my config)
• using nvim-lsp
• nvim-lspconfig for nvim-lps configuration
• nvim-compe for autocompletion
• lspkind to show pictograms on autocompletion items
• telescope for file finding , picking , previewing (files and even images)
• nvim-treesitter for syntax highlighting
• nvim-autopairs , for autolosing braces and stuffs
• neoformat for prettifying / formatting code
• packer.nvim as package manager
• indent-blankline.Nvim for indentlines
• smooth scrolling
• Snip support from VSCode through vsnip supporting custom and predefined snips (friendly-snippets)

Requirements

• neovim 0.5
• A terminal that supports nerdfonts
• Set terminal's inner padding to 0.

It would be nice if NvChad focuses on existing plugins and config before adding new things , some plugins like whichkey , telescope , treesitter still have basic configs! Also adding new features that'd make NvChad slow or its startuptime slow wouldnt be encouraged , if that feature's really needed then It'll be mentioned in the wiki with its config.

• Debloat the config
• Add more themes.
• Add a theme switcher.
• Add a global configuration so it doesnt get hard to update :c
