Starting out with a lua based neovim configuration

When starting out with a lua based configuration for neovim, I had a lot of trouble just getting started. A lot of the resources on the internet started by recommending copying someone else's configuration.

I created a few videos of my journey from scratch, explaining everything and I hope this helps someone else as well:

Thanks!

Thanks for making these. I love your videos. I watched part 1 when I was switching from vimscript to lua and it helped me a lot so I subscribed (the others weren't out yet). I'm pretty much all set up now but I'll still probably watch the next couple videos anyway.

Even though there were already some good videos about this, most are already several months old and it's great being able to watch more up to date ones. They're also well made, clear, and concise, and you have a good speaking voice (thumbnails are good too).

That's the best tutorial I've seen.

People approach is so wildly different that even this can be overwhelming! An overview of some of the key patterns people use and templates would be amazing.
