[Guide] How to add groups to Keymaps

[KrappRamiro]

Hi! This is not a question, but i couldnt find a better category for this.

If you are a complete newbie in Nix / Vim , this will probably be helpful for you.

If you ever wonder how to have your Keybindings / Keymaps grouped like this

Instead of this

All you have to do is use binds.whichKey.register

For example:

    programs.nvf.settings.vim = {
      # ------------------------------------------
      # WHICH-KEY GROUPS
      # ------------------------------------------
      binds.whichKey.register = {
        "<leader>e" = "+Neotree";
      };
      
      # The actual bindings go here
      keymaps = [
        {
          key = "<leader>ee";
          mode = "n";
          action = "<Cmd>Neotree toggle<CR>";
          desc = "File explorer";
        }

        {
          key = "<leader>eg";
          mode = "n";
          action = "<Cmd>Neotree toggle source=git_status<CR>";
          desc = "Git Status";
        }
      ];
    };

    };

Good guide, probably worth adding to the docs :)

Damn that puts a smile in my face.

Hey, did you ever consider a "Begginers start here" section of the manual? A section where begginers of Neovim and Nix (people like me) learn how to do the basic stuff? Configuring keybindings, setting up indentation, etc...

If you see it as something worth the effort, i could work on that. Maybe you had an idea about it

Oh, i should probably ping you i guess @NotAShelf
