Neovim
If you are new to neovim, you should install it at https://neovim.io/
The very first thing you should do is to run the command :Tutor in Neovim.
This will walk you through the basics.
If you don’t know what this means, type the following:
- <escape key>
- :
- Tutor
- <enter key>
If want a good starting place for your configuration, I would suggest with https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim
Eventually, I would recommend reading through the whole thing, but the tldr is:
(explain how to do the following)
- autocomplete (Ctrl+Y to accept, Ctrl+N for next, Ctrl+P for pref)
- code formatting (space f)
- next/prev diagnositc ([d and ]d)
- go to definition / find references (gd,gr)
- rename (space r n)
- file search (space s f, space s a)
- local file text search (/)
- full project text search (space s g)
- open/close terminal (use something like tmux zelij, or built in terminal tabs)
- hover (shift K)
- signature help (<C-h>)
