Doom Nvim is a Neovim port of the doom-emacs framework and adapted to Vim philosophy.
Its goal is to give Neovim an initial configuration to start working in a stable and efficient development environment without spending a lot of time configuring everything and without forgetting that we don't all need the same environment.
As a vimmer, I know that it's difficult to configure Vim/Neovim when you are just starting to use it, how time consuming it's to customize it to your needs and that's why Doom Nvim exists also because I love Doom.
Its design is guided by these mantras:
- Gotta go fast. Startup and run-time performance are priorities. That is why Doom Nvim uses Lua instead of Vimscript for its configurations and lazy-loads all the plugins.
- Your system, your rules. You know better than a third party what is convenient for you. At least, Doom hopes so! It won't automatically install system dependencies nor plugins that have external dependencies (and will force plugins not to do so either if they have any external dependencies).
- What does not serve you, you throw away. Doom Nvim is made up of a moderate number of plugins (~40 plugins as of this writing). You more than anyone know what you need in your environment and that's why Doom Nvim allows you to easily disable plugins and add new ones. Also, Doom Nvim doesn't come with TreeSitter parsers or Language Server Protocols configured by default, so you can use only what you need.
- 2021-07-12: If you are facing issues related to
LuaSnip
, update Doom Nvim and follow the instructions found in the issue #38. - 2021-07-03: The
doomrc
has been fragmented and it is not working anymore, please see Migrating to 3.0.0 for more information. - 2021-05-01: The
doomrc
is not using Vimscript anymore, please see the new doomrc file structure for use it with Lua.
- Minimalistic good looks inspired by modern code editors.
- Works out of the box, just install and start editing.
- A modular organizational structure for separating concerns in your config.
- Extensible and customizable, everything can be easily modified.
- Curated and sane defaults for many plugins.
- Automatized, you don't have to care about manually managing plugins, installing language servers or even TreeSitter syntax parsers, Doom Nvim will handle all these things for you.
- A declarative and powerful plugins management system
(powered by
packer.nvim
). - Opt-in LSP integration for many languages by using the new built-in LSP included on Neovim 0.5.
- An Emacs which-key like plugin to manage your
keybindings
, centered around leader prefix key (SPC). - Project search and more utilities, powered by telescope.nvim.
- Curl 7.x (for using the installation script)
- Git 2.23+
-
Neovim 0.5.0 onwards
-

Optionals:
Doom is comprised of ~40 optional plugins, some of which may have additional dependencies. Please visit their documentation.
Simply run the following command:
curl -sLf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NTBBloodbath/doom-nvim/main/install.sh | bash
Or if you want to live in the bleeding-edge with the latest features:
curl -sLf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NTBBloodbath/doom-nvim/main/install.sh | bash -s -- -d
Or if you are using a configurations switcher like cheovim:
curl -sLf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NTBBloodbath/doom-nvim/develop/install.sh | bash -s -- -s
Then read our Getting Started guide to be walked through installing, configuring and maintaining Doom Nvim.
NOTE: If you want to see all the available commands in the installation script, then use bash -s -- -h instead of just bash
Neovim is not very difficult. Although you will occasionally run into problems if you are not an advanced vimmer. When you do, here are some places you can look help:
- Our documentation covers many use cases.
- The Configuration section covers how to configure Doom Nvim and its modules.
- The Plugins Management section covers how to install and disable plugins.
- Search the Doom Nvim's issue tracker before opening a new issue to see if your issue was already been reported and to avoid duplicating issues.
- hlissner per doing Doom Emacs ❤️.
