NvChad

Lua

Showcase





Some theme showcases :D

onedark nord gruvchad everforest

Very Very Useful lua plugins used in my config

Lspkind-nvim

This tiny plugin adds vscode-like pictograms to neovim built-in lsp completion items:


Nvim-tree.lua

fast file tree:


Telescope-nvim

A fuzzy file finder, picker, sorter, previewer and much more:


Indent-blankline.nvim

adds indentline:

Galaxyline

fastest statusline plugin I've used so far:


Nvim-bufferline.lua

As a top tabline like thing which lets me handle tabs and buffers like switching , sorting and closing them etc.

Nvim-web-devicons

Lua fork of vim devicons which lets me change icons of filetypes:

Nvim-treesitter

Better syntax highlighting for programming languages ( NvChad by default comes with lua/bash treesitter parsers ).

without / with Treesitter:

Credits

  • Elianiva helped me with neovim lua related issues many times, NvChad wouldnt exist without his help at all!
  • @lorvethe for making NvChad logo!

Features

  • File navigation with Nvimtree
  • Using plugins that are mouse friendly
  • Beautiful inbuilt themes
  • lazy loading 100% of plugins
  • managing tabs, buffers with bufferline
  • autosave
  • icons on nvimtree, telescope, bufferline/statusline and almost everywhere! with nvim-web-devicons
  • minimal status line (galaxyline)
  • gitsigns (colored bars for git in my config)
  • nvim-lspconfig for nvim-lsp configuration
  • lspInstall for installing lsp servers easily
  • nvim-compe for autocompletion
  • lspkind to show pictograms on autocompletion items
  • telescope for file finding, picking, previewing (files and even images)
  • nvim-treesitter for syntax highlighting
  • nvim-autopairs for autolosing braces and stuffs
  • neoformat for prettifying/formatting code
  • packer.nvim as package manager
  • indent-blankline.Nvim for indentlines
  • smooth scrolling
  • luasnip for snippet plugin and snip support from VSCode through vsnip supporting custom and predefined snips (friendly-snippets)
  • Distraction free modes (modes in which statusline, tabline etc. stuff get disabled so its just the text visible in the buffer similar to goyo.vim)
  • Code formatting/prettifying
  • gitsigns for git diffs

Bloat

  • To all those who think this is probably bloated, sure it is. Bloat means different to everyone. NvChad has like 30 ~ plugins but that doesn't mean those plugins are compromising neovim's speed, snappiness, or making it slow. No matter how many plugins I'd add on NvChad, it wouldn't compromise speed/snappiness/make it slow or whatever since it uses packer.nvim as plugin manager. packer.nvim lets you lazy load plugins i.e. loading plugins on certain events, mappings, sequentially loading them, etc, thus loading them only when needed. I have lazy loaded all the plugins so most plugins aren't loaded by default, hence not affecting neovim's startup/launch time.

TODO

It would be nice if NvChad focuses on existing plugins and config before adding new things. Some plugins like whichkey, telescope and treesitter still have basic configs! Also adding new features that'd make NvChad slow or its startup time slow wouldn't be encouraged. If that feature is really needed then it'll be mentioned in the wiki with its config.

  • Debloat the config.
  • Make NvChad more and more faster (reduce startup time as low as possible).
  • Add more themes.
