Installation of neorg in Apple Silicon / Macos Ventura

[miraculusik]

Neorg setup for apple silicon can be a bit confusing, especially for those using Macos Ventura. Here I will describe a clean neorg installation with solutions to all the problems I had while installing neorg myself. I hope it will be useful to someone.
Special thanks to all those who contributed to Neorg.

Installation steps:

1. Install gcc. this is c++ compiler for treesitter.
   brew install gcc
2. Install Neorg.

require('lazy').setup({
  ...
  { "nvim-neorg/neorg" },
  ...
})

3. Add important Settings

-- Neovim config for the links to show properly
vim.opt.conceallevel = 2
vim.opt.concealcursor = "nc"
-- more info 
-- :h conceallevel
-- :h concealcursor

-- treesitter
-- you need to specify treesitter compiler for c++*
require("nvim-treesitter.install").compilers = { "gcc-12" } 

-- cmp
require('cmp').setup({
  ...
  sources = {
    { name = "neorg"}
  }
  ...
})

4. add neorg configuration in your neorg.lua config file.
   this code includes some personal configs. I don't want to delete my configs because maybe can help you.

require("neorg").setup({
	load = {
		["core.defaults"] = {},
		["core.norg.completion"] = { config = { engine = "nvim-cmp" } },
		["core.norg.concealer"] = {
			config = {
				icon_preset = "diamond",
				folds = false,
				dim_code_blocks = {
					enabled = false,
					padding = { left = 4 },
				},
			},
		},
		["core.norg.dirman"] = {
			config = {
				workspaces = {
					notes = "~/notes",
				},
			},
		},
	},
})

5. After finishing the above steps open nvim and install the packages.

6. We've done everything necessary so far, the only thing left is to load the norg parsers with treesitter.
In nvim run this command :Neorg sync-parsers

7. (OPTIONAL) set neorg icon. Default web-devicons doesn't include norg or org files icon.

require("nvim-web-devicons").set_icon({
	norg = {
		icon = "",
		color = "#56949f",
		cterm_color = "65",
		name = "Norg",
	},
})

🎉Congratulations now you can take notes using neorg
