Vim Configuration

Vim, my server editor of choice. (I prefer vscode for development on my workstation.)

Plugins

  • vim-rainbow
  • powerline
  • nerdtree

~/.vimrc

This .vimrc is pretty gross looking, but please just note the major configurations:

  • Line/Relative Line
  • Tabs are 4 spaces
  • Typing { automatically generates a closing \n}
  • NerdTree is enabled
  • The theme is Solarized
  • Parentheses are pretty..
