GenesisNvim

Installation · Youtube · Telegram

A minimalistic nvim config aimed at Python developers. It is a lightweight replacement for PyCharm and VsCode, eliminating all unnecessary featuresd to be easily portable for running on servers and for deployment on Linux systems.

🌟 Preview

🌟 What it is?

• There are many forks of nvim, but what does this one do? The main purpose of this config is to create a minimal environment for Python development, so that it is not resource-hungry and can be deployed quickly on Linux systems.
• It can be difficult for beginners to install all the necessary plugins and LSP servers to get started. Here you don't need to do anything, just run a few commands to install and immediately use auto-tips, Ruff formatting, Mypy fixes and all the other tricks without setting up configurations.

✨ Features

• Python autocomplete with Pyright by default
• Support for default Ruff formatting and fixing
• Fast startup in just 140ms
• Catalog trees, support for TODO tags, navigation plugins, Git
• Support over 30 color schemes
• Support for diagnostics and LSP by default
• Built-in floating terminal that can be opened separately
• Quick search via Telescope

🌟 Installation

• Requires Neovim >= 0.9.
• Requires a Nerd Font installed and selected as your terminal font, otherwise file icons will render as missing glyphs (boxes/question marks).
• If you already have neovim, make backups of your configuration.
• Remove the current nvim configuration and cache if it exists:

rm -rf ~/.config/nvim ~/.local/share/nvim ~/.local/state/nvim ~/.cache/nvim

• Execute the commands to install:

sudo pacman -S git npm neovim  # Arch
sudo apt install git npm neovim  # Debian
brew install git npm neovim  # MacOS

Debian/Ubuntu's apt package can lag behind the minimum required Neovim version. If nvim -v reports below 0.9, install a current release from the official Neovim releases page or its PPA instead.

mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim
git clone https://github.com/Zproger/GenesisNvim.git ~/.config/nvim
nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa
nvim -c "MasonInstall pyright ruff mypy debugpy rust-analyzer"

🌟 Other

• The project is ready for development, so I accept all your ideas. You can contact me or open Issues to make your edits or suggest improvements.
• To learn the tool key combinations, press Space, after the prompt, select the desired menu. To analyze and change key combinations, go to ~/.config/nvim/lua/core and ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugins.
