Dotfile Collection

This repo is originally a vim/neovim configuration project with plugins manually managed with git submodule. But now, it has be expanded into a dotfile collection with numerous configuration files across multiple platforms.

Neovim

Overview

Supported languages

Languages	Completion	Syntax check

Other features of neovim:

• Enhanced searching (<leader><leader>f)
• Snippets (<C-l>) and emmet (<C-x>,) support
• Global finder (:CtrlSF)

Quick Start

Installation

First, ensure Neovim is installed on your machine, if not, try this guide.

Link file init.vim to nvim's config directory:

For unix:

git clone 
mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim
ln ~/.config/nvim/init.vim vim/init.vim

For windows:

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path $HOME\AppData\Local\nvim\init.vim -Target .\vim\init.vim

Next, type nvim in shell to get in neovim, and type :PlugInstall to install all plugins.

Finally, we use YouCompleteMe as completer for languages such as c/c++, python, rust. YouCompleteMe is a powerful plugin which supports lots of languages, but at the same time it is hard to configure. Here I will just list configuration commands for python and c/c++ on ubuntu as an example. For more support please refer to YouCompleteMe's official guide.

sudo apt install build-essential cmake vim python3-dev
cd ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe
python3 install.py --clangd-completer
