Built not for everyone — but for those who want to master their own tools.

Neovim Configuration

Hagakure

A wandering soul with a Vim config, now rebuilding it from scratch in Neovim.

The goal is to keep the spirit, upgrade the sword — sharpened with Lua and modern tooling.

Iaijutsu Sword Attacks - Dance of the Sword

Keymaps are modularized for clarity and ease of discovery — AuDHD-friendly by design.

Designed to be both informative and self-guiding.

You'll see three types at lua/core/keymaps/:

• Customs
• Native Re-implementations
• Plugin Keymaps

This structure allows the user to explore mappings as standalone modules and reference points.

F-Keys are available for OGs, but not a habit worth building (for the sake of zen).

Kendos Sword Schools - Techniques & Forms

Kendo means The Way of The Sword.

lsp/

Modular Per-language LSP Configuration; extensible & usage specific

• Add your language server's config to lua/lsp/servers/, then inject to lua/lsp/shared.lua.

Inspired by out-of-the-box Lua-based distros:

• NvChad
• Kickstart
• LunarVim

Yoroi of the Sword Master - Tools of Warlike

Yoroi means Samurai Equipments.

Full plugin config lives in lua/plugins/, modularized by purpose & intent.

This config uses lazy.nvim for plugin loading and startup optimization. Plugins are lazy-loaded, organized under lua/plugins/, and grouped by function.

plugins/: configured like a blade — swift, silent, and aligned in purpose

• raphael.nvim: Theme management plugin with file-type specific theme appliance
• pantheon.nvim: Theme plugin based on fictional characters
• dadbod.nvim: UI + cmp: SQL interaction with RDBMS systems (Postgres, Oracle, SSMS, etc.)
• flash.nvim: Navigate precisely - no more H/J/K/L spam
• gitsigns.nvim: Stage hunks, view diffs, navigate history — buffer-local
• lualine.nvim: Custom tabline/statusline with style
• undotree.nvim: Visual undo/redo timeline

And of course: Telescope, cmp, luasnip, DAP — the usual suspects.
