I'm a minimalist, adhering to the KISS principle and embracing the philosophy of "do one thing and do it better". I only install and use plugins that are absolutely essential. I dislike those all-in-one plugins. I prefer plugins that enhance the native functionality of Vim and strongly avoid those that modify Vim's original features. For functionalities that can be implemented with just a few lines of code, I prefer to implement them myself, such as LSP progress, lightbulb and indent guide.

🚀 Key mappings

I assign the key mappings rationally aiming to make them efficient and easy to remember.

• Multiple leader keys

  In addition to <Space> that is the general leader key, , serves as the leader key for git, while <BS> functions as the leader key for toggling.

• Mnemonic

  Key bindings are organized using mnemonic prefixes like <Leader>b for buffer, <Leader>f for fuzzy finder, <Leader>w for window, and so forth.

• Consistent

  Similar functionalities have the same key binding throughout my dotfiles. For example, , and . for moving tabs in both kitty and Neovim.

🎪 Showcases

Blazing fast fuzzy finder via fzf.vim and telescope.nvim

Use fzf for the performance-critical operations such as files finder and grep, and telescope for interacting with other plugins such as nvim-navbuddy due to its great ecosystem.

Ultimate fold with nvim-ufo

Now the fold is asynchronous and powered by LSP with a customizable appearance for the folded line and peek window.

Enhanced quickfix window with nvim-bqf

Equip the quickfix with a preview window and an interactive filter (backed by fzf), and introduce many convenient actions for quickfix.
