Links |LazyVim-links| Install · Configure · Docs LazyVim is a Neovim setup powered by lazy.nvim to make it easy to customize and extend your config. Rather than having to choose between starting from scratch or using a pre-made distro, LazyVim offers the best of both worlds - the flexibility to tweak your config as needed, along with the convenience of a pre-configured setup. FEATURES *LazyVim-features* - Transform your Neovim into a full-fledged IDE - Easily customize and extend your config with lazy.nvim - Blazingly fast - Sane default settings for options, autocmds, and keymaps - Comes with a wealth of plugins pre-configured and ready to use REQUIREMENTS *LazyVim-requirements* - Neovim >= **0.9.0** (needs to be built with **LuaJIT**) - Git >= **2.19.0** (for partial clones support) - a Nerd Font **(optional)** - a **C** compiler for `nvim-treesitter`.

FILE STRUCTURE *LazyVim-file-structure* The files under config will be automatically loaded at the appropriate time, so you don’t need to require those files manually. **LazyVim** comes with a set of default config files that will be loaded **before** your own. See here You can add your custom plugin specs under `lua/plugins/`. All files there will be automatically loaded by lazy.nvim CONFIGURATION *LazyVim-configuration* Refer to the docs ============================================================================== 1.
