My Text Editor Journey: Towards Modal Editing
And I did give it some time when I tried it again after a while. I would say, using kickstart.nvim was one of the best choices I've ever taken. Hat's off to TJ for creating this wonderful piece of neovim config. It slowly eased me into the world of modal editing and, thereby, into neovim.

Now I get NeoVim
I started by looking at The Primeagen Neovim tutorial that is only 4 videos long, used vim motions in VS Code for about a week, and then I made the jump to the real deal, I downloaded the kickstart.nvim files and starting using it. It was painful, I could not get some basic features for my personal projects working, highlight was broken as well as the go-to definitions, but as you should do as a developer, I looked up in google how to solve some issues, I found that I was missing some dependencies and I needed to install some stuff so treesitter could color my vue files, installed some LSPs, so I could write some basic Golang and I became to be productive.

What's New in Neovim 0.10
I usually recommend new users to check out Kickstart. It contains a set of plugins and nice to haves so you don't have to discover them your self.
All plugins are in one file + has a lot of comments to help you get started.

From JetBrains to VSCode to NVIM: Why I Made the Switch
Out of the box it offers almost nothing, but after 7 years of development I like that. I love the idea of customizing to my needs my IDE, so with the help of kickstart.nvim I have with 1 minute of installing and 10 extra minutes of configuration a complete IDE.

Using a venv with Neovim's Python LSP
I recently started coding with Neovim using kickstart.nvim as the template for my editor configuration. I downloaded the python-lsp-server package using Mason, but I was disappointed to discover that the IntelliSense on my third party dependencies didn't work. The LSP was resolving to my global Python installation, which did not have the packages from my virtual environment (venv) installed.

I Learned Neovim In A Weekend
First thing I did was get kickstart.nvim. I had heard it was extremely useful (and it was). It was very easy to install. I start reading through init.lua, and it told me to run :Tutor, which is almost 1,000 lines of learning how to use Neovim, to which I obviously ran that command and started reading. Obviously, it takes a bit of time to complete :Tutor, but it's well worth it. "hjkl" wasn't too hard to get used to, also repeating motions by using numbers was useful, such as using '5dd' to delete 5 lines. I highly suggest reading this file, especially since I didn't really know about the different modes, which is probably why I failed to switch the other times. You would start writing your code, then Neovim would say that it can't find that command, you would accidently type an i and then start typing, and so on, it was a nightmare. For those that don't know the modes, here is each mode and how to get between them.

Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
I also suggest against using distributions. Instead of learning how to configure nvim itself you're learning to configure that specific distro.
I suggest to take someone's lua config and start from there. Kickstart.nvim is a good one: https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim

Neovim freezes when I type /
Please take a look at this issue. The culprit is the path source of nvim-cmp.

File structure with lazy
I’m having trouble understanding the preffered file structure when using lazy. I have a setup that works currently and I used this guide but I believe that this configuration defeats the purpose of lazy-loading. I also tried moving all of the plugin configs to the /nvim/plugins folder but that didn’t work, I think because when using lazy you want lazy to handle the loading not RTP. I’ve taken a look at the lazyvim github but I’m a little bit overwhelmed. I don’t understand how their nvim/init.lua doesn’t point to anything with require. Here is my config. So I think that the mistake I’m making is loading all my plugins in a table that gets passed to lazyvim but then requiring configs from my init.lua, when all of that info should get passed directly to lazy vim via multiple lua tables?

How does something like LazyVim or LazyNvim write the startup text?
I have been looking at LazyNvim and LazyVim and I would like to do something similar to in particular LazyNvim's startup text. How do configurations like this create this startup text?

Help me understand this rtp LazyVim trick
As usual, I referred to how folke does stuff for inspiration, and I want to better understand what exactly is going with the Treesitter configuration in LazyVim.

I love this bastard
LazyVim (This is a distro in the form of a plugin, imo beats astronvimm nvchad, lunarvim for that reason alone. Check out the plugins/extras/lang directory in there. Has setup for a few languages. You can see the list here. Just raise a request for JAVA and someone will have your back))

neovim config
Anyways, although i have not used them, LazyVim and LunarVim comes highly recommended. You can try these and see what suits you .

Just started using LazyVim and this could be a really dumb question.
Am I reading this correctly, in the LazyVim starter, this line reads as it's importing all the plugins from the remote GitHub project, is that correct?
