LazyVim: blazingly fast, sane defaults, easy to customize and extend
You're viewing a single thread.
I’m looking at implementing lazy.nvim, the package manager, but not LazyVim. Personally I like to be in control of everything and LazyVim takes too much away from me.
What does it take away?
For me LazyVim is just magic I don’t want to learn, along with preferring to have explicit control of the whole setup. Also migrating to something else takes more effort going from one magic to another magic. I’ve just finished migrating from packer to lazy.nvim and I like that I still have all the git history in my plugin/* files.
I’m very happy with my new “vanilla” lazy.nvim setup now.
One nice thing with lazyvim is there's a single option to disable all the key bindings so you can map them yourself. I really like the set of plugins it comes with too, so I've been really happy with the distro so far.
Yeah I like the set of plugins it comes with. It’s definitely a well curated distributions.
I learn a lot about lazy.nvim reading LazyVim documentation and config.
You can roll your own after reading the LazyVim, kickstart.nvim, astrovim, etc.
With lazy.nvim, there is little magic in nvim distros.
Astrovim community has many working config and you can reference them as a starter when you add new plugin to your config.
Yes there is definitely a lot that can be learned from those different distributions. The community around them is a big plus. While I don’t use anything magical myself, I’m happy they exist for various reasons.
