Nodejs for specific distros

• Here

Make sure to remove or move your current nvim directories: ~/.config/nvim ~/.local/share/nvim

git clone https://github.com/PiyushDuggal-source/neovim ~/.config/nvim

Run nvim and wait for the plugins to be installed

NOTE (You will notice treesitter pulling in a bunch of parsers the next time you open Neovim)

Get health

Open nvim and enter the following:

:checkhealth

check the report and download required packages.

You'll probably notice you don't have support for copy/paste also that python and node haven't been setup

So let's fix that

First we'll fix copy/paste

• On mac pbcopy should be builtin

---

NOTE make sure you have node installed, I recommend a node manager like fnm.

Fonts

I recommend using the following repo to get a "Nerd Font" (Font that supports icons)

getnf

To add a new LSP

First Enter:
