Rig ships the Neovim config under neovim/.config/nvim. It is built around mini.nvim. External plugins are used where they add clear value: language servers, formatting, Git, GitHub, debugging, HTTP requests, database browsing, and AI workflows.

​
Architecture

Config files load in numbered order during startup: 
~/.config/nvim/
  init.lua             # Bootstrap mini.nvim + MiniDeps
  plugin/
    10_options.lua     # Built-in Neovim behavior
    20_keymaps.lua     # Custom mappings
    30_mini.lua        # Mini module configuration
    40_plugins.lua     # External plugins
  after/
    ftplugin/          # Filetype-specific overrides
    lsp/               # Language server configurations
    snippets/          # Higher priority snippet files
  snippets/            # User-defined snippets

PrefixGroupExamples
<Leader>aAIChat, inline, model, buffer context, and review actions
<Leader>bBufferbs scratch, ba alternate, bw wipeout
<Leader>dDebugdb breakpoint, dc continue, di step into
<Leader>eExplore/Edited directory, ef file dir, ei init.lua
<Leader>fFindff files, fg grep live, fh help tags
<Leader>gGitgg Neogit, gd diffview, gc commit
<Leader>lLanguagela actions, lr rename, ls definition
<Leader>oOctoGitHub PR/issue integration
<Leader>rRequestHTTP client (Hurl)
<Leader>sSessionsn new, sr read, sd delete
<Leader>tTerminalTerminal management
<Leader>vVisitsVisited paths history

General Mappings

ShortcutAction
[p / ]pPaste above / below current line
Ctrl+d / Ctrl+uHalf page down / up (centered)
n / NNext / prev search result (centered)
Ctrl+w zZoom toggle
Ctrl+w rResize to default width
Esc EscTerminal normal mode
Ctrl+h/j/k/lNavigate between windows
Alt+h/j/k/lNavigate in Insert/Command mode

​
Color Scheme

Uses Zenbones with:
  • Stark darkness setting
  • Transparent background
  • Italic comments
  • Custom desaturated palette (subtle leaf, sky, blossom, rose, water tones)
  • Dark neutral backgrounds (#121212 base)

​
Plugin Manager

MiniDeps manages all plugins. Loading is split for startup speed:
  • now() — loads immediately (icons, notifications, statusline, color scheme)
  • later() — loads after first screen draw
  • now_if_args() — loads immediately only when opening a file (nvim -- file)

​
External Plugins

Beyond mini.nvim, the config includes:

zenbones.nvim + lush.nvimColor scheme
nvim-treesitterSyntax highlighting and textobjects
nvim-lspconfig + mason.nvimLanguage server management
