Lazyvim For Ambitious Developers

LazyVim For Ambitious Developers

Vim has been the editor of choice for power-developers for decades, but it's always had an ethos of being hard to learn and harder to configure. No More! The LazyVim distribution has crafted a delightful and powerful out-of-the-box experience that is on par with any modern IDE. Configuration is either unnecessary or simple. That takes care of the "configuration" problem, but in order to use LazyVim effectively, you must first know how to use LazyVim. This book was written for developers who want to ramp up on modal editing with Neovim. It is approachable and digestible, but most of all, it is comprehensive. It collects tips and tricks gained from over two decades of using Vim, and is written with the gentle humour Dusty Phillips brings to all his work.
