Nvim as IDE for golang developers (and possibly other languages supported by plugins).

Main feautures:

• LSP-based features
  • completions
  • hinting / linting
  • go to definition/references/etc...
• snippets
• fuzzy completions for LSP/snippets/etc...
• full-text grep
• fuzzy file searching with preview (ctrl-p, fzf analogue)
• project file tree preview
• source file classes/methods/vars tree preview

TODO:

• delve (debugger) support
• interactive terminal / :GoRun
• bugfixies

Some key functions in action are displayed here:

Configure font rendering in your system and select good monospace font for nvim. Rendered text must be:

• crisp (minimal blur edges)
• readable
• not too small/large

This will provide you with a foundation to work comfortably.

Personally I achive this goals with:

• neovide gui frontend for nvim (uses custom opengl font rendering engine).
• guifont=Liberation\ Mono:h9.3 (must be installed in system, check with fc-list : family style | grep -i liberation)
• nerd-fonts-noto-sans-mono must be installed in Arch for cool utf symbols inside nvim.

Below all nvim commands are alias for neovide.

1. clone this repository into ~/.config/nvim path.
2. install packer https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim#quickstart
3. run nvim +PackerSync
4. inside nvim run :LspInstall gopls for installing golang LSP server and :LspInstall phpactor for php LSP server
5. run nvim +GoInstallBinaries
6. inside nvim run :TSInstall go gomod html javascript vue and :TSInstall <filetype> for each filetype your work with (supports tab-completions).

Fuzzy searching / navigation:
