I gave it a go last night and it is way trickier then I expected. Simple things like setting options are not very convenient at the moment. I also tried to get packer.nvim running but the README was not very helpful.
Looks like I will be sticking with init.vim for some time.
What trouble do you have with it? I found it very straightforward.
The first thing is obviously the lua syntax which is not a shock by any means. Just adds some learning curve which I don’t mind at all.
My knowledge of vim configuration is limited so the explanation may be a bit vague. But in vimscript you can do something like set expandtab, but in lua you have to set in one of
vim.{o,bo,wo}which is a bit confusing at the beginning.The last thing is that I cannot for the life for me figure out how to get packer.nvim to work. I tried looking at some examples but they split their config between several files and since I am not very good at programming, let alone lua, I get very confused by this. I slogged through the readme for the project but couldn’t understand much of it either.
