My personal modern NeoVim config

This repo is based on the setting from nvim-config.

Setup

0. Use the latest version of NVIM
1. This setup uses packer.nvim for the package manager, so first install packer.nvim by following the official instructions
2. Clone this repo into ~/.config/nvim:

git clone https://github.com/Alexcyh7/nvim-config.git ~/.config/nvim

3. When you first enter nvim, you will see a bunch of mess because the plugins aren't installed yet, so run :PackerInstall to install the plugins
   

Note that there is a chance that the download would timeout and packer.nvim would report install failed, in this case run :PackerInstall again

4. This setup uses the modern LSP system for language support, things like auto-complete, symbols tree, etc..., which requires a LSP server outside the editor. Fortunately nvim-lspconfig manages to configure most of the LSP server options for us, all we need to do is to install the LSP servers themselves:
   In lua/configs/autocomplete.lua, line 108, edit the list of LSP servers, a complete list of supported LSP servers is listed here. After that install the corresponding servers on your OS, auto-complete should pop up for supported languages now :)
5. Final step, smart highlighting using treesitter!
   The default vim regex-based highlighting is pretty lame, for NVIM, treesitter offered an advanced code highlighting that can make your code much cleaner
   You can use the :TSInstall <lang> command to install a parser for a language
   Alternatively, in lua/configs/treesitter.lua, line 6, you can have a list of parsers that will be updated every time you use the :TSUpdate or :TSUpdateSync command (the latter is for synchronized updating), or you can just install all maintained parsers by uncommenting line 5 and commenting line 6
