Introduction

This document provides a step-by-step guide to setting up a Neovim development environment on Arch Linux. It includes the installation of essential dependencies, language servers, and additional tools to enhance your coding experience.

Prerequisites

• Operating System: Arch Linux
• Plugin Manager: lazy.nvim

Installing Dependencies

To ensure all plugins function correctly, you will need to install the following dependencies:

# Install Node.js and npm for coc.nvim
sudo pacman -S nodejs
yay -S nodejs-neovim

# Install Lua-Penlight for code_runner.nvim
sudo pacman -S lua-penlight

# Install Universal Ctags for vista.vim
sudo pacman -S ctags

Installing Language Servers

Next, install the language servers required for various programming languages:

# Install Bash Language Server
sudo pacman -S bash-language-server

# Install Clangd for C/C++ language support
sudo pacman -S clang

# Install CMake Language Server
yay -S cmake-language-server

# Install Lua Language Server
sudo pacman -S lua-language-server

# Install SystemVerilog Language Server (svlangserver)
yay -S svlangserver

Setting Up Neovim

First, install Neovim:

sudo pacman -S neovim

Then, clone the Neovim configuration repository:

git clone https://github.com/cybaol/nvim.git ~/.config/nvim

After opening neovim, it will automatically install the required plugins and configure them without manual intervention. Finally run the command :checkhealth in Neovim to ensure all dependencies are correctly installed. If not, please fix them. I trust you.
