4.0.0 (2024-04-01)
After nearly 10 months of development and some amazing work by the community we are very happy to release AstroNvim v4. This major update is a complete refactor and restructure of AstroNvim into more modular distribution method. Rather than the user cloning the AstroNvim repository directly, the user will simply add it as a plugin into their own Neovim configuration with the lazy.nvim plugin manager and import the plugins it provides. We have put together a simple GitHub template to quickly get started in making a new lazy.nvim powered Neovim config: AstroNvim Template.
Configuration has also been moved from this repository into a collection of core plugins: AstroCore, AstroUI, AstroLSP which follow the same plugin configuration pattern as the rest of the Neovim ecosystem.
Check out the new AstroNvim Documentation as well as the v4 Migration Guide to get started!
