My vim config

Fishy Vim Configuration

Portable neovim configuration tailored for my needs.

Principles

• Lua - Plugins and configuration should be in lua which is significantly faster than vimscript and way nicer IMO.
• Use Vim's language - Most of the plugins I use extend vim's natural language - adding targets and motions that can be repeated. Motions include commenting and sorting. Targets include classes, methods, urls, indents, lines and more.
• Modular config - Each config file should be loadable without the others and can be hacked on individually.
• Evolution - I'm constantly improving/speeding up/learning new convenient ways of having a better workflow.
• Speed - I always try to have the least number of keystrokes to achieve what I need.

Prequisites

• neovim
• nodejs
• ruby
• python

Setup

git clone http://github.com/willfish/vimrc.git ~/<path/to/repos>
cd ~/path/to/repos/vimrc
./setup.sh

Now open vim and run :PackerInstall

Configuration

• See init configuration file for initialisation and configuration I can't do without.
• See maps configuration file for normal, visual and terminal mode maps.
• See opts configuration file for changes to the out of the box configuration of neovim.
• See plugins for a list of installed plugins.
• See advanced for plugin configuration.

I'm part way through a migration to 100% lua and still have a vimrc of to-be-migrated vimscript.
