Vim pluggin manager vim-plug is required.

Platform Specifics

Windows

win32yank is required on Windows to fix line ending issues.
Install win32yank with scoop:

scoop install win32yank

im-select.exe has already included in this repo.
No more operations need to be taken.

macOS

im-select should be installed separately with HomeBrew:

brew tap daipeihust/tap
brew install im-select

Recommendations

Nushell is recommended, or you need to slightly modify init.vim.

Bob makes life easy to install, update and switch between different Neovim versions on any OS.
It's especially useful on Linux distributions where neovim isn't up to date like Ubuntu or Debian.

For alternative ways to install Neovim, you may choose Homebrew for macOS and Scoop for Windows.

Powerline Font is recommended to use in your terminal.
In this case Cascadia Mono PL is a good choice.

Use Cases

Neovim

With vim-plug already installed, just copy and paste init.vim and run :PlugInstall inside neovim.
If plugins are not suitable in your case, plug-free.vim is an alternative.

Vim

init.vim and plug-free.vim can also be used to configure vim.
For example you may create a symbolic link like this:

# Linux and macOS
ln -s ~/.config/nvim/init.vim ~/.vimrc

REM Windows
mklink ~\.vimrc ~\AppData\Local\nvim\init.vim

VSCode

To be compatible with vscode, modify VSCode Neovim extension settings:
Vscode-neovim > Neovim Init Vim Paths
