NvChad-Config

My custom configuration for NeoVim uses NvChad as the base and includes some additional plugins to enhance its core functionality.

The purpose of this configuration is to retain the default NvChad settings while adding extra features and language support specific to my personal stack.

The configuration can be used as is and does not require any additional setup or setup or settings. Some Mason packages aren't avaliable on certain ARM processors and Android (Termux). Check mason.lua file for more info on how to get those.

2. Install and initialize NvChad v2.0 by running the following command:
