It supports modern Neovim features, plugin management, and language server protocol (LSP) integration, making it a practical launch point for building personalized environments. The repository includes setup instructions for Linux, macOS, and Windows, ensuring cross-platform compatibility.

Its goal is to help users quickly get started with Neovim while maintaining flexibility for future customization.
