LSP Setup

Configured servers/tools are listed in lua/kickstart/plugins/lspconfig.lua.

Currently configured:

  • lua_ls: Lua language server for Lua and Neovim config work.
  • stylua: installed through Mason and used for Lua formatting.

Mason installs configured tools automatically. To inspect or manually install tools:

:Mason

To add another language server, add it to the servers table in lua/kickstart/plugins/lspconfig.lua.

Example:

local servers = {
  lua_ls = { ... },
  pyright = {},
  rust_analyzer = {},
}

Formatting

Formatting is configured in lua/kickstart/plugins/conform.lua.

Manual formatting:

<space>f

Format on save is currently disabled by default because the enabled filetype table is empty. To enable it for a language, add that filetype:

local enabled_filetypes = {
  lua = true,
}

External formatters can be configured in formatters_by_ft.

Treesitter

Treesitter is loaded eagerly and installs a basic parser set when the tree-sitter executable is available:

  • bash
  • c
  • diff
  • html
  • lua
  • luadoc
  • markdown
  • markdown_inline
  • query
  • vim
  • vimdoc

When opening other filetypes, the config tries to install and attach available parsers automatically.

Optional Example Plugins

Kickstart ships example plugin files that are present but not enabled from lua/lazy-plugins.lua:

  • kickstart.plugins.debug
  • kickstart.plugins.indent_line
  • kickstart.plugins.lint
  • kickstart.plugins.autopairs
  • kickstart.plugins.neo-tree

To enable one, uncomment the matching require line in lua/lazy-plugins.lua and restart Neovim.
