🚀 Requirements

These packages/tools are required to be installed on your OS for the plugins in this config to work:

• Lazy.nvim — plugin manager
• LazyGit — used by lazygit.nvim
• ripgrep — used by Telescope's find_files/live_grep
• tree-sitter CLI (v0.26.1+, installed via a package manager, not npm) — required by nvim-treesitter to build parsers
• A C compiler (e.g. gcc/clang) and make — needed to build telescope-fzf-native.nvim, and used by the tree-sitter CLI itself when building parsers
• Node.js (with npm) — required by most Mason-installed LSP servers and by GitHub Copilot's agent
• A Nerd Font — needed for icons (nvim-web-devicons, used by barbar, lualine, neo-tree, nvim-cmp)
• A GitHub Copilot subscription — run :Copilot setup on first use to authenticate

PHP debugging (optional)

To debug PHP with nvim-dap:

1. Install the Xdebug PHP extension and enable it in your project's php.ini.
2. Run :MasonInstall php-debug-adapter once — unlike other Mason tools in this config, it isn't in the ensure_installed list, so it won't install automatically.

🌙 Theme

https://github.com/catppuccin/nvim

Flavour: Macchiato

If you are using tmux, the color scheme doesn't show properly. To enable the theme schema set the following config in your .tmux.conf.

~/.tmux.conf

set -g default-terminal 'xterm-256color'
set -as terminal-overrides ',xterm*:Tc:sitm=\E[3m'

Treesitter

Parsers for lua, rust, go, bash, php, blade, astro, css, dockerfile, html, json, yaml, scss, typescript, vue, svelte, json5, javascript install automatically the first time you open this config (and lazy.nvim's :TSUpdate build hook keeps them updated). Opening any other filetype also auto-installs its parser on first use. Manual :TSInstall <lang> is only needed if you want a parser that isn't in that list yet.
