[Help] Where do I start to make my config? (programming.dev)

As much as neovim seems nice, I can't seem to find many resources to actually help start configuring neovim as a beginner. Help is very sparse, and the easiest thing seems to get a premade config, but then there are just too many features, and complexity gets in the way of understanding what's going on

Try kickstart It is a pre-made config but contrary to the heavy weight distributions out there, it's rather simple and documented.

I'll +1 this guy. Is this the 100% best way? No idea, but there are going to be a bunch of ways. The less preconfigured options, the better. As you use it, your configs will be molded to your preferences so a minimal start is ideal and will give you a good sense of direction.

Good luck and happy vimming!
