NvChad is a Neovim config aiming to provide a base configuration with very beautiful UI and blazing fast startup time.
NvChad is not a framework. It is supposed to be used as a “base” configuration for the masses. It aims to provide a specific collection of default plugins which users find to be very useful.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Blazing fast startup time as plugins are lazy loaded wherever possible; plugins will load only when needed.
- Attractive user interface while still embracing the CLI; UI plugins are themed with visual elegance.
- Highly customizable – default plugins, options, and themes can easily be disabled or overridden via the chadrc file.
- Built-in update mechanism to stay up to date with the latest changes while preserving user configuration.
- 30+ inbuilt beautiful themes.
