LunarVim?

LunarVim:

2. LunarVim is fast
3. LunarVim is light
4. LunarVim is community driven

One can have separate configurations for vim, nvim, & lvim.

Privacy

It may be useful to stop tracking files in working tree for privacy reasons.

Use the following command to stop tracking changes:

git update-index --assume-unchanged <filename>

Use the following command to resume tracking changes:

git update-index --no-assume-unchanged <filename>

Style

Fonts

After downloading the Nerd Font of you choosing, to ~/.local/share/fonts run the following commands to install and retrieve the font family name.

# force reinstallation of fonts
sudo fc-cache -fv
# find font family name
fc-list | grep -i <your-font-name>

Once you have the font family name, you can change your terminal configuration, as seen in my alacritty/alacritty.yml.

font:
  normal:
    family: "Hasklug Nerd Font"
    style: Regular
  bold:
    family: "Hasklug Nerd Font"
    style: Bold
  italic:
    family: "Hasklug Nerd Font"
    style: Italic
  bold_italic:
    family: "Hasklug Nerd Font"
    style: Bold Italic

Themes

If using Alacritty, alacritty-themes can be used to switch themes for the terminal.

Using the setup in this repo, changing Neovim themes is easy. Just change the appropriate file in init.vim.
