## Neovim with maximum MINI

MiniMax is a Neovim config generator. After [running a script](#setting-up), your config will:

- Be primarily based on the 'mini.nvim' modules for a coherent, powerful, and flexible setup.
- Provide out of the box a stable, polished, and feature rich Neovim experience.
- Have minimal structure with potential to build upon.
- Contain extensively commented files meant to be read.

Explore [reference configs](configs). The most appropriate one is picked during generation based on Neovim version.

See [change log](CHANGELOG.md) for a history of changes.

### What it is not

It is not a "Neovim distribution", i.e. there are no automatic config updates. After your config is set up, it is yours to improve and update (which makes this approach more stable). You can still see how MiniMax itself gets updated (see [Updating](#updating) and [Change log](CHANGELOG.md)) and adjust the config accordingly.

It is not a comprehensive guide on how to set up and use every Neovim feature and plugin. Most of the config parts are carefully chosen in order to reach a balance between stability and features.

### Requirements

#### Software

- [Neovim](https://neovim.io/) executable. Assumed to be named `nvim`.
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/) executable. Assumed to be named `git`.
- Operating system: any OS supported by Neovim.
- Internet connection for downloading plugins.
- (Optional, but recommended) [`ripgrep`](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation).
- (Optional, but recommended) Terminal emulator (or GUI) with [true colors](https://github.com/termstandard/colors#truecolor-support-in-output-devices) and [Nerd Font icons](https://www.nerdfonts.com/) support. No need for a full Nerd font, using [`NerdFontsSymbolsOnly`](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest) as a fallback is usua
