Config changes

Lazy

The only modification made to the LazyVim starter is to remove habamax as this isn't used.

Key maps

Configures key maps for:

• moving lines of text up and down
• starting jq and yq for the current buffer
• save and close (buffer)
• send change (e.g. ciw change in word and C change line) events to the black hole register so that previously copied things can be pasted in
• color cycler (only works if focused on a valid colour syntax e.g. CSS hex)

Options

Sets soft-wrap, line breaks, scroll-off (how much space above/below the cursor to keep in view), and sets the python lsp to basedpyright

Auto commands

No auto-commands are currently configured

Plugin configurations

All files in this folder are additional to the LazyVim kick-starter.

Each plugin configuration is in its own file to avoid accidental duplication.

Workflow

• hard time - a taskmaster for bad habits

Look and feel

• Snacks

  • removes unused options from the default LazyVim splash
  • adds the m- header to the splash

• TokyoNight - sets the style to night and adds transparency

• render-markdown - sets rendering on for checkboxes

• TODO comments - sets highlighting (with custom colours) for my ideation workflow including

  • TASK, OBJECTIVE, DECISION, QUESTION, CHOICE
  • IDEA, NOTE
  • DONE, OBJECTIVE-MET, DECISION-MADE, QUESTION-ANSWERED

Language support

• uv - adds uv package management when working with python
• markdown-toc - I prefer this to the default marksman toc. Sets marker to always - (dash)
• conform - sets markdownlint-cli2 to be the default formatter for markdown files
• nvim-lint - sets markdownlint-cli2 to be the default linter for markdown
• treesitter - adds additional languages (I'm not entirely sure this is necessary)
