# dotfiles-vim
- Updated : 2024-02-25 13:37
---
I want to finally have a `.vimrc` in which I understand each and every line. After years of collecting snips and
scraps from other people's dotfiles, I want to make sure that I am aware of what my `.vimrc` is doing.
This configuration is based heavily on the guide I found here: [Vim Zero](https://www.oliversherouse.com/posts/vim_zero.html)
which does exactly what I am aiming to do here: wipe the slate clean and start over.
Whenever possible, I've noted the URL from which I found the setting or snippet. I try to insist that not everything is self-explanatory.
## Installation
Without the Ansible playbook, just clone this repo to a directory and create a few symlinks:
```sh
ln -s dotfiles-vim/.vimrc $HOME/.vimrc
ln -s dotfiles-vim/.vim $HOME/.vim
```
Then open vim and install (or update) the plugins with `:PlugInstall` (or `:PlugUpdate`)
