Install syntax highlighter for any language you will be using with

:TSInstall python
:TSInstall php
:TSInstall go

or visit treesitter for more information

LSP & Linters & Formatters & Dap

Install the language server for the languages you will be using

:Mason

Sources installed via Mason will be available through Null-ls as well for example installing python's black formatter then setting up a null-ls source
