Thank you so very much! This tutorial cleared so many queations I Had after attempting to set neovim up from scratch just by using google and official documents. Great Work

Fantastic video. I'm just transitioning from vim to neovim, so this was perfect. Thank you:-).

This tutorial is clear and very thorough. Well done! I really like the upgrade from vim to neovim so far.

FYI with WSL2 you can export your system to a tar file that can be then imported on the same machine or other machines. So dumping a distro to start fresh isn't totally detrimental if you make a backup prior.

18:25 Conquer of Completion (coc) plugin isn't limited to only Neovim, you can use it in regular Vim also.
22:15 coc-python is deprecated, coc-pyright is the recommended plugin to use.

Great nvim video! That would be epic to see more content like this in the future

Dude I have to say I know this is old... but I've been a node developer for like 6 years, have never heard of you until two weeks ago and now since I got assigned to some python work you've been on repeat for like 80% of my day.

can't thank you enough. I was new to vim / nvim world, coming from Intelli ecosystem.
I had skimmed through several video on setting up nvim, but this was the one that helped to set all the things without surprises !

this is the most beginner-friendly neovim setup video I've found. and I've watched a whole bunch of them. this was the easiest to understand. thanks so much for this!

Worked perfectly, thank you! Didn’t have much luck going the Lua route other tutorial we’re using.

[bennyreisen]

thanks for sharing your config and explaining in detail how the vim-plug works. One thing that drives me crazy is you saving, close and reopen vim every time you adjusted your config. just exit insert mode by hitting ESC key and write :source % which will source the current file and voila.

I had a weird situation where I didn't have the nvim/plugged directory.
I fixed it by adding path to `call plug#begin()` making it into `call `

Hope it helps someone : D

You can just type `:source %` instead of writing and exiting
