NeoVim can be quite the rabbit hole, especially when it comes to configurations. There are a lot of them out there, but most are outdated, and focus heavily on programming languages like Rust, Python, Go, and every language other than Java. The few videos about using NeoVim to edit Java files either lack details, or straight up don't work properly. How would I know this? I spent several months configuring, and tinkering with different NeoVim configurations and tutorials to finally piece together a working Full Stack Java configuration with a focus on Java and TypeScript. And now since I have completed the hardwork, I want to share it all with you, and rebuild my configuration from scratch so you can follow along and start on the NeoVim journey with my. Below I am including links to the configuration repository for free to either just copy and paste, or to check in on if you get lost. I am also including my personal configuration which is a modified version of this one with more features and obviously personalized to my liking, along with all the repositories for the plugins used in the configuration. I am keeping this configuration as vanilla as possible to allow you to explore and grow your NeoVim experience into exactly what you want, which really is the beauty of NeoVim. So I definitely recommend starting out with this basic configuration, getting the feel for NeoVim as an editor, and then start exploring my personal configuration, along with the configurations of the developers I mention below.
