f5ae360e7eKeymaps are discoverable in-editor by pressing <Space> and pausing, and are written down separately, so they are deliberately not duplicated here. What was not recorded anywhere was the surrounding context. Covers the 0.12 floor, since autocomplete, pumborder, pummaxwidth, the nearest completeopt value and vim.pack all require it; what bootstrap.sh symlinks where, and why config/ is linked in as lua/config; and the vim.pack convention of one file per plugin with versions pinned in the tracked lock file. The rest is the behaviours that read as bugs until you know they are deliberate. A standalone .php file gets no LSP at all, because phpactor sets workspace_required and wants a project marker. Spell checking is on globally, in code buffers too. netrw is disabled so `nvim .` opens nvim-tree, on the right. Diagnostic signs are letters rather than icons. Also restates the gitsigns global-mapping rationale already in the source, since folding those maps into on_attach is the obvious tidy-up and it silently stops them appearing in the which-key popup.

neovim
Requires Neovim 0.12+. Several options used here (autocomplete,
pumborder, pummaxwidth, and nearest in completeopt) only exist from 0.12,
and plugins are managed with vim.pack, which landed in 0.12 too.
Day-to-day keymaps are not listed here — press <Space> and pause, and
which-key shows what is available. This file covers the things that are not
discoverable that way.
Layout
bootstrap.sh symlinks the pieces individually rather than linking the whole
directory, because ~/.config/nvim also holds state Neovim writes itself:
| repo | symlinked to |
|---|---|
init.lua |
~/.config/nvim/init.lua |
config/ |
~/.config/nvim/lua/config |
lsp/phpactor.lua |
~/.config/nvim/lsp/phpactor.lua |
nvim-pack-lock.json |
~/.config/nvim/nvim-pack-lock.json |
config/ is linked in as lua/config so everything is reachable as
require('config.…'), which is what init.lua and config/init.lua do.
Plugins
Managed by vim.pack, so there is no plugin manager to bootstrap. Each plugin
gets a file under config/plugins/ that calls vim.pack.add() and then
configures itself, and config/plugins/init.lua requires them in turn.
Update with :lua vim.pack.update(). Versions are pinned in
nvim-pack-lock.json, which is tracked — commit it after an update so the other
machine gets the same set.
Note
nvim-web-devicons needs a Nerd Font in the terminal or the icons render as tofu.
brew.shinstalls one for ghostty.
Defaults worth knowing
- Spell checking is on globally,
en_gb— in every buffer, code included, not just prose filetypes. - Autocompletion is on via Neovim's own
vim.o.autocomplete, with a rounded popup capped at 40 columns. No completion plugin is involved. - The sign column is always shown, so git and diagnostic signs appearing do not shift the text sideways.
- netrw is disabled and nvim-tree takes over directory buffers, so
nvim .opens the tree rather than netrw. The tree opens on the right. - Diagnostic signs are letters (
EWIH) rather than icons, and do not update while you are in insert mode.
PHP / LSP
lsp/phpactor.lua is the only language server configured, enabled from
config/lsp.lua. It expects phpactor on PATH (brew.sh does not install
it — it is a Composer global install).
It sets workspace_required, so it only attaches inside a project with one of
.git, composer.json, .phpactor.json or .phpactor.yml — a loose .php
file opened on its own gets no LSP, which is intentional rather than broken.
phpactor's bundled phpstan and psalm integrations are both disabled, so diagnostics come from phpactor itself. Run those tools separately if you want them.
Important
gitsigns keymaps are set globally, not from
on_attach. Gitsigns attaches asynchronously, after which-key has already built its keymap tree for the buffer, and which-key only rebuilds onBufReadPost/BufNew/LspAttach— so buffer-local maps added later never appear in the popup. The gitsigns API no-ops in buffers it has not attached to, which is what makes global maps safe here. Don't “fix” this by moving them intoon_attach.
