🚨🚨🚨 DISCLAIMER 🚨🚨🚨
I incorrectly refer to lua tables as "tuples" in this video. For some reason my brain was stuck on the word "tuple". But really an object inside curly braces is called a "table" in lua. thanks!

This is the first nvim setup video where I actually understand what's going on. Thank you 😊
Happy to hear that! My goal was to make it understandable
hahah, true
this is so true 🤣
exactly, others are just - do this, do that, and then boom.
Been learning Vim for a week, and so far it's been such a blast. Love the keybindings.
I went with NvChad to reduce the necessity for configs, and this series couldn't come at a more perfect time ! Thank you =)
Just wanted to say that I'm so thankful for your explanations on everything. I am new to neovim and every other configuration video does not go into nearly as much detail. Thank you so much, man!
I LOVE that this video is in a more calm tempo, and you can follow mistakes happening. That really helps understanding this on a better level. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
This was a fabulous introduction. I've been using neovim for a while, but this walk through really helped me better understand what everything is.
My lua file is now quite a bit smaller and I am a lot happier! :)
Nice!!!
Excellent video. You do a great job of breaking down each tool and config so we can expand upon it! Keep up the great work
I've been thinking about moving away from LazyVim and customising my config a but more to my liking, this is the perfect push! Looking forward to the rest of the episodes! Hopefully I'll have something ready over the holiday break
Hey man, you are really good in making such a complicated subject easy. Was blindly following others' config and then I bumped into your videos. Now I have a better grasp of the entire thing. Thanks a lot!!
I really loved the video; it was super helpful! I just started playing around with Neovim a few days ago, and it was all so confusing. But your explanation was so clear that now when I check out the lua.init file (I now get why it's called "lua.init" and why it's supposed to be in the ~/config/nvim folder), I understand most of it. Thanks a bunch! Excited for the upcoming episodes in the series!
Outstanding! As a longtime vim user (almost chose eMacs 20 years year) I am super happy to find your channel. Wonderful explanations! I wish I had something similar back in the day.
Cheers and I’ll be coming back for more!
Great series! Awesome engagement with the end user and you can fully understand the entire time. SUBBED!
I really hope there's more courses like this which shows instant result in what we are learning . Most of the time i can't visualize the thing i learn and what its true purpose are . Great video. Need more of your videos !
The abstract syntax tree explanation was fantastic. Wish I had something like that when I was learning to configure neovim.
Thank you!
requirements :
1. ripgrep
2. neovim 0.9.0 or newer
3. fd
4. c compiler (gcc and g++)
I am loving this series because you are also telling why and how and now i understand what i am doing instead of just copying and pasting.
Hi, I just discovered your channel. Thank you for this amazing tutorial. The ecosystem is overwhelming to make the jump from vim inside vscode to a neovim that behaves like an ide. Now only do I understand HOW better but WHY. I’m forever grateful and I can’t wait for future episodes!
Love it! thank you for walking us through and explaining every line in detail, best Neovim course on YT!
Thank you!
Amazing content, i really needed this. To understand what is happening in all the files, and so good explanation. Keep it going my man!
I'm using VSCode + Vim but with this I'll be able to make the switch. Really needed someone to make configuration look simple. Thank you!
Thanks man for taking the time to explain what each config and plugins do. All other tutorials out there is trying to a speedrun as if everyone already knows what all those configs and plugins are!
Oh this is a fresh tutorial! Sweet! I will watch eagerly for updates
Dude i am beyond grateful for this. You are an awesome content creator, keep going dude!
This is exactly what I needed. Looking forward to the next episodes !!
Thanks!!
Loved it, looking forward to the next episode! Especially the basics of „talking to vim“ have been interesting.
This is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much, you are so underrated!
Thanks for this! I found your explanations informative easy to follow. Looking forward to part 2
Great tutorial, looking forward to see next episode!😄
I would like to say a big "THANK YOU" to you. This is a great video. I'm working as a programmer and from my perspective, I do not have the right understanding what is actually happening when using Eclipse and all other tools provided by my company. So I started a side project with C++ and I'm using NEOVIM so far. Everything that has to be done is done manually or by scripts written by myself. This isn't as productive as it could be for now, but it feels good to know what happening at all time. This workflow helps me to develop a far more in-depth understanding of what I am doing. So, I enjoy your setup, and I'm already excited for episode two.
Awesome glad to hear it!
Love the structure, pace, and teaching style of your videos. I was determined to learn neovim over the weekend and I found myself just copying other youtuber's dotfiles and not really understanding how things were working under the hood. I decided to start over with your tutorial and do things slowly to learn from the feedback loop for each plugin added. Thanks for taking the time to make this series.
Glad to help!
Amazing video! Keep it up! Can't wait to watch episode 2!
Thanks!
This is by far the best nvim setup video. Thank you so much.
one of the best video on how to setup neovim. so easy to follow and it works.
Thank you for making this video. Look forward to the next ones in the series
Awesome videos! I've always wanted to get into vim as an IDE, but there is a jungle outside. Now I have a clear path, thank you!
this is by far the best video for setting up Neovim and so enjoyable!!
that was great !!!!!!!!!!! jumping into the next episode - really fantastic learning experience. THank you !
A very well paced video with great explanations. Learned a lot from this! Thank you!
Thanks!
Bro... Thank you so much. I was struggling to setup nvim since I'm still new to it. Every tutorial I've seen before are either too complicated or they don't explain anything, just straight up puts random codes in the editor (random for me at least). Again, thank you!!
This is the only video that I came across with a clear explanation on creating a config for beginners
This was so unbelievably pleasant and easy to follow q-q thank you so much
Thank you so much for this series, absolute godsent!
Awesome and helpful content, amazing voice and speech, and remarkable music in the background! Thanks a lot, man! It's just great content to watch and study! Please, don't stop =)
Loved reading this thank you!
That is what I was looking for...thank you for the easy and understandable approach in this video, help me a lot.
You are doing the Lord's work. Learned so much new in the first 10 min already!
Amazing explanation and pace . Keep up the awesome work
Thanks for this man, my goal is to have a dope neovim setup that I fully understand and wrote from scratch. I have played around with LazyVim and LunarVim but I don't understand how to change keymaps and all that. I use vim every day inside vscode and can't imagine ever getting away from it. Looking forward to more episodes!
Wao, What a video it is. Man this is the best video, I've seen explaining about nvim configs like in this easy to digest manner, every other video felt so dens. Couldn't keep up as a beginner to nvim. Thanks
Glad it helped!
this is quality content. it seems like you've started your channel over a year ago, but it will blow up in popularity anytime soon
Here’s hoping 🤞
You just cannot imagine how overwhelmed i was when first learning, this video is the only one that i can understand
Finally! Someone who can explain this clearly !
Amazing
Nice video! Love the new setup!
hey thanks!
Finally, I found my Vim Guru!! Simple and easy to understand explanation.
Amazing as always! You gave me the best tool for IT work, thank you!
This is freaking awesome! Thanks for sharing!
this is what I was waiting for, thank you :)
Very informative thank you very much. One suggestion I could make would be to include links to the specific github repository mentioned, obviously I can google them but it would rule if I could just open all of them at once from the description of the video
Thank you, like many others, I found this to be a very well detailed and informative guide to configuring nVim. I have successfully configured nVim for a 50+ user system that will be used to teach C++.
eagerly waiting for future episodes. 👍👍👍
Loved it, we need more content like this!!!!
I'm migrating my classic vim setup over to neovim & lua and this series has been very useful. Thanks!. One slight wrinkle I've run across is that nvim-treesitter has a hard dependency on a c / c++ compiler being present otherwise it vomits error messages when it starts.
In my case I'm using an immutable linux with containerised developer environments so there's no dev tooling in the host system. Consequently I've skipped nvim-treesitter.
Thank you, this looks very promising. I can't wait for the next parts of your tutorial. I've always struggled with neovim, but finally, I can become 'hackerman' 😁
😀
Great starting point, very good explanation of all the moving parts that you need to get started
💪👍✅
Thank you! I'm excited to bring out the next episode
Thanks for tutorial. I was using Vim but this modular configuration is great!
It's worth mentioning that you need to have ripgrep installed if you want to use the find grep command
Yep, I was just about to write the same comment.
to install in windowes
choco install ripgrep
finally a good Neovim tutorial, Thanks for the content, it's really amazing!
big huge thank you for such professional and quality content. absolute hero 🎉😊
Great video! One suggestion to add to your notes: for live grep to work, ripgrep is required. I wouldn't have known where to look if you had not provided so many great links. Thank you very much.
For anyone who also has this issue (like I did) another way to find the right place to look is to run ":checkhealth telescope" after installing. This works with other packages as well.
thank you very much bro
Hi! I'm beginner with Neovim and your video helped me a lot! I'll be watching your next videos for sure, can't miss it :)
I have just a suggestion, you might want to use some sort of an app to show your keystrokes, this actually helps a lot, but just if you want!
You’re not the first to suggest this so I’ll definitely look into it thanks!
This is what I’ve been looking for! Awesome video. Do we have an ETA for part 2? I cant wait.
Working hard on part2!
Wow.. ive been trying to migrate to neovim and everything out there is not good. This is by far the best intro I have seen and I actually have a neovim setup now. Thanks!
Hey there! 🌟 I'm super thrilled to hear that our neovim guide hit the spot for you! Migrating to neovim can feel like jumping into a pool of cool, but slightly intimidating tech-water. Glad we could turn that into a smooth swim for you. 🏊♂️💻 If you've got any more questions or need tips on fine-tuning your setup, feel free to drop them here.
Thank you for all hard work and amazing tutorial !
Thank you. I think the best explained video about Neovim. Well done!
Very comprehensive video, thank you!
Thank you. The most important is not see the things works but know how it works.
God, finally an nvim setup video I can understand! Thank you oh so much good sir!
Thanks. This kind of explanation I have been looking for so long I tried Neovim many times, installed tired configured and waist lots of times, again and again, coz it attracted me to use and do programing in this kind of editor. thanks a lot, Finally I understood what and where need to configure. 👌👌👌👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏🙏
Glad to hear that you found the series helpful. Neovim can be a bit of a challenge to get configured just right, but once you do, it's a powerful tool. Keep at it!
10/10 for leaving the little mistakes here and there in the final video
cant wait for more. Thank you
Very well explained! Great video!
Thanks!
This video helped me start using Neovim. First time I installed nvim I was confused and simply uninstalled it and continued using vim. Also appreciate the style of the presenter which is
unlike some rambling nvim videos out there.
Thanks!
This is a great video! Tree sitter has always been a doosy for me and thos was great but I think I might need to configure it more for my programming use cases..
Thanks sir. Though I used some other codes but I was finally able to understand what lua is.
Coming from VS Code, the switch to Neovim was awfully confusing - this series helped me switch. Can't wait for debuggers -- and maybe how to use Github Copilot or other AI tools? 🙏
Also, I joined the Typecraft Gang! Glad to be here.
Amen. Brother
Thank you, thank you, thank you, literally it's the first video where i could actually understand 😅
Your videos are amazing. Thank you for your contributions
Great video series. Thank you!
Thanks a lot for the great video. For once someone is going line by line and explaining what's going on. A simple request, if that's alright, in the series please show how to setup a dev environment for Python where we can create, change, etc between different conda environments, and even more complicated that I have not been able to find is a way to interact or use Jupyter Notebooks in Nvim. ❤
Excellent presentation of what I consider to be a pretty complicated application.
great video ! waiting for ep 2
AstroNvim!!! :D Great Nvim setup, full development environment.
Coming from webstorm, that "record macro" trick at ~6:00 felt like a kick to the face, comprehension wise. All three times I re-watched it.
Absolutely love it. Your videos are excellent 👌
This is exactly the tutorial I needed!
Great job man 🎉
Thanks for great step by step explanation!
Great series. Hope you can continue to show to install the core main plugins. Also if you can add LSP for Golang and Python, that will be great. I actually gave up neovim watching other videos, by watching you slowly progress the config, I want to give it another shot. Thanks again for putting this together.
Awesome I’m glad it’s helping you out. I’ll be sure to do an episode setting up some of the most popular languages (python and go included)
You the G, with this I shall start my journey
OMG. Thank you for this easy to understand nvim setup! I tried to follow TJ and Prime's setup but they went to fast without really explaining anything. Unfortunately this didn't give me much hope to start learning vim . I haven't even finished the video I'm at the part were we just installed catppuccin. :O Thank YOU
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial!
Glad you enjoyed it!
great tutorial for beginners!
thanks for creating & sharing
Glad you liked it!
