Yoink.nvim (Multi-File Edition)

"Professionally acquired configurations"

A fun fork of kickstart.nvim by MillerApps.

Introduction

Yoink.nvim is a multi-file configuration inspired by the original kickstart.nvim. It maintains the original goal of offering a teaching tool and reference config, but in a more modular and maintainable structure.

Note

Default Neovim config paths:

OS	Path
Linux, MacOS	$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim, ~/.config/nvim
Windows (cmd)	%userprofile%\AppData\Local\nvim\
Windows (PowerShell)	$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\nvim\

Why Fork?

Forking the repo ensures you have a personal copy to modify at will. See [GitHub docs on forking][gh-fork-docs].

Replace MillerApps/kickstart.nvim with your fork URL if you fork the repo.

Q: I already have a Neovim config. What do I do?

A: Back up your existing config, then remove it:

mv ~/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim.old
rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/

Q: Can I use multiple Neovim configs?

A: Yes! Set $NVIM_APPNAME. For example:

Install this config in ~/.config/nvim-Yoink

Then create an alias:

alias nvim-Yoink='NVIM_APPNAME="nvim-Yoink" nvim'

When you run nvim-Yoink, it will use ~/.config/nvim-Yoink and ~/.local/share/nvim-Yoink.

Install Instructions

Install requires Neovim 0.9+. Always review the code before installing a configuration.

Clone the repository and install the plugins:

git clone git@github.com:MillerApps/yoink.nvim ~/.config/MillerApps/yoink.nvim

Open Neovim with this config:

NVIM_APPNAME=MillerApps/yoink.nvim/ nvim
