And you can also add a bash script to establish a Neovim distro (Neovide, NVChad, Astro, Lazy, Kickstart, etc.).

astro-setup.sh

Create a bash script file namedastro-setup.sh that has content given below:

mv ~/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim.bakmv ~/.local/share/nvim ~/.local/share/nvim.bakmv ~/.local/state/nvim ~/.local/state/nvim.bakmv ~/.cache/nvim ~/.cache/nvim.bakgit clone--depth 1 https://github.com/AstroNvim/template ~/.config/nvim# remove template's git connection to set up your own laterrm-rf ~/.config/nvim/.git

Then just run the command:

$sh astro-setup.sh

lazy-setup.sh

# requiredmv ~/.config/nvim{,.bak}# optional but recommendedmv ~/.local/share/nvim{,.bak}mv ~/.local/state/nvim{,.bak}mv ~/.cache/nvim{,.bak}# clone projectgit clone https://github.com/LazyVim/starter ~/.config/nvim# git removerm-rf ~/.config/nvim/.git

Use the same method in section astro-setup.sh.**
