Plugin manager: VimPlug

Linux VimPlug:

sh -c 'curl -fLo "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
       https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim'

Windows VimPlug :

)

Config location AppData\Local\nvim\init.vim

If no folder or file, you need to create it.

To get this config, replace init.vim with win_init.vim and rename the file

Coc

I use coc for autocompletion, file explorer, eslint / prettier and whole bunch of things.

hello

explorer

⚠️ You need node to install coc

Coc plugins are installed automatically. To install more use CocInstall or add package to g:coc_global_extensions in plugins-config.vim.

FAQ

What's the vision for this config?

The goal is to have a lightweight, lean yet effective desktop to work and have fun 😊.

Why use this config?

It's home. And it's also lightweight enough for heavy workflow on 8go of ram (docker + node + chrome and hundreds of tabs).

Is such a simple desktop really usable?

Yes I used this config daily for 5 months while working on frontend dev at Okarito.

Why base it mainly on Arch?

I use Arch btw.

Where is polybar and rofi?

I used it for a while but in the end I don't like it that much. I rather have i3 default status bar and dmenu. I don't really care about heavy ricing I just want the best software for my use.

Other settings

Gnome

When I'm not using i3, I'm using Gnome because Gnome is the best non tilingwm for me.

The following settings are settings I'm always enabling when I install Gnome:

Alt right click resize

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences resize-with-right-button true
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences mouse-button-modifier '<Alt>'

Fix alt-tab on gnome

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications-backward "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows "['<Alt>Tab', '<Super>Tab']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows-backward "['<Alt><Shift>Tab', '<Super><Shift>Tab']"
