I have been using Lua to customize Neovim for some time now and generally, the experience has been good. From time to time, I do encounter issues such as dependency incompatibilities butI always manage to find a solution. Recently, though, I experimented with LazyVim, and I must admit, it might replace my current setup. LazyVim fulfills all of my requirements, it works and looks great.

Btw, if you this is your first trying it check out Elijah Manor's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N93cTbtLCIM
