How to Install

Linux and Macos

Before installing, run the following commands to remove any old Neovim configurations:

rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/*
rm -rf ~/.local/state/nvim/*
rm -rf ~/.config/nvim/*
rm -rf ~/.config/nvim/.*
mkdir -p ~/.config/nvim

Next, install the new configuration:

cd ~/.config/nvim
