**Important Update** When I initially created this repo I didn't anticipate the amount of breaking changes, if you'd like to use the same basic config as this one as a base I recommend my new repo: [nvim-basic-ide](https://github.com/LunarVim/nvim-basic-ide)
**Another Update** This repo should work fine with Neovim 0.8, also all packages are pinned so it should remain stable.
Each video will be associated with a branch so checkout the one you are interested in, you can follow along with this [playlist](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctH-a-1eUME&list=PLhoH5vyxr6Qq41NFL4GvhFp-WLd5xzIzZ).
## Try out this config
Make sure to remove or move your current `nvim` directory
**IMPORTANT** Requires [Neovim v0.8.0]](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases). [Upgrade](#upgrade-to-latest-release) if you're on an earlier version.
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 healthy
Open `nvim` and enter the following:
@ -60,20 +56,3 @@ Next we need to install python support (node is optional)
```
npm i -g neovim
```

**NOTE** make sure you have [node](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed, I recommend a node manager like [fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm).
### Upgrade to latest release
Assuming you [built from source](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Building-Neovim#quick-start), `cd` into the folder where you cloned `neovim` and run the following commands.
```
git pull
make distclean && make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
sudo make install
nvim -v
```
