The first release ever for EverVim!

It's been around half a year since I first start this vim distrobution as a fork of spf13-vim. The vim config from spf13 has always been great for its customization and comprehensiveness. EverVim is not for replacing spf13-vim. It's just a different flavor that is suitable and attractive to more vimers. Let's start with the features that EverVim has, apart from those brilliance of spf13-vim

  • Easy to setup, just type sh Boot-EverVim.sh and type :PlugInstall in vim, then you'll be all set!

    • Theme default to Dracula, which is available among all editor/IDE platforms
    • Contains a cmd script to make it portable under windows, so that you can put all your vim and config into a USB drive, literally code anywhere.
    • fix several dead plugin link from spf13-vim
  • Async!
    • Use vim-plug instead of vundle. Plugin installation is reduced to 1/10 of spf13-vim
  • YouCompleteMe
    • Is the default option. Other ones include neocomplete, neocomplcache and snipmate
    • You still need to run install.py to make it work
  • C/C++ friendly
    • Add c.vim and other C++ plugins for native coder :)
    • YouCompleteMe has the most comfortable completing experience for C++
