My neovim workflow

All configs are in my dotfiles.

Search multiple words:

:/\vword1|word2|word3

:%s/word1/word2/g

Use both \ and ; as leader key:

vim.keymap.set("n", ";", "<Leader>", { remap = true })
vim.keymap.set("n", "'", "<Leader>", { remap = true })

Misc keymap:

vim.keymap.set("n", "n", "nzz")
vim.keymap.set("n", "N", "Nzz")
vim.keymap.set("n", "q", ":q<CR>")
