Titus's Neovim Adventure

This repo is my daily Neovim setup built on kickstart.nvim, with extra plugins and quality-of-life tooling layered on top.

Current Issues to Fix

• Give prompt to disable wakatime plugin as most don't use this
• Finish updating everything to Neovim 0.12 (remove lazy vim and use new package management)
• Check LSP config that changed in Neovim 0.11

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/neovim ~/.config/nvim
cd ~/.config/nvim
nvim

On first launch, Neovim will install plugins automatically via lazy.nvim.

Dependency Repair Scripts

These scripts are safe to run any time to repair missing dependencies. They do not wipe your Neovim data.

Linux

bash lin-depend.sh

What it handles:

• Installs core CLI deps (ripgrep, fd, fzf, neovim, shellcheck, node/npm, make, etc.)
• Installs clipboard dependency based on session type (Wayland or X11)
• Ensures markdownlint-cli2 is available for markdown linting
• Ensures your ~/.config/nvim symlink points to titus-kickstart

Windows (PowerShell)

.\win-depend.ps1

What it handles:

• Installs core CLI deps via winget when missing
• Ensures markdownlint-cli2 is installed via npm
• Ensures %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\nvim points at titus-kickstart

Why markdownlint-cli2?

This config uses nvim-lint for Markdown and is configured for markdownlint-cli2. If only markdownlint is installed, you may see ENOENT errors.

Troubleshooting

Markdown lint still shows ENOENT

1. Re-run the dependency repair script for your OS.
2. Confirm the binary exists in your shell:

command -v markdownlint-cli2

Get-Command markdownlint-cli2

3. In Neovim, confirm it is visible on Neovim's PATH:

:echo exepath('markdownlint-cli2')

If this returns an empty string, Neovim is not seeing your shell PATH.

npm global bin not on PATH

If npm install -g markdownlint-cli2 succeeds but the command is still missing, your npm global bin path may not be in PATH.

Check npm global bin location:

npm bin -g

npm prefix -g

Add that directory (or <prefix>/bin on Linux) to PATH, then restart terminal and Neovim.

Winget install issues on Windows

If a package install fails:

1. Update winget sources:

winget source update

2. Re-run win-depend.ps1.
3. If a package is still unavailable by ID, install it manually and re-run the script.

Symlink not updated

The scripts do not delete a real directory at your Neovim config path. If you previously created a normal directory there, remove or rename it manually, then re-run:

• lin-depend.sh
• win-depend.ps1
