Installation

1. Install neovim (using arch btw)

    sudo pacman -S neovim

2. Install packer.nvim, a package manager for neovim

   git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim\
    ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/packer.nvim

3. Clone this repo into .config

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

4. Install packages, there are two ways of doing

   Through the terminal without actually entering nvim (you might need to run it twice)

   nvim -c PackerSync

   Or just enter neovim and run PackerSync

   nvim
   :PackerSync
