LazyVim configuration for writing in the dark

Overview

Current setup uses LazyVim as a base, stripped down to essentials. Like everything else, optimized for solitary work at 3am.

Plugin Stack

Core

• LazyVim - Base configuration, most defaults disabled
• init.lua - require("config.lazy") and nothing else

Visual

• ayu.lua / ayu-toggle.lua - Dark theme that doesn't burn retinas at night
• auto-dark-mode.lua - Follows system, though it's always dark anyway
• twilight.lua - Dims inactive code like thoughts you're not ready to process
• zen-mode.lua - Full screen focus mode for when the world needs to disappear

Minimal Interfaces

• minimal-statusline.lua - Just enough info to know the file saved
• minimal-telescope.lua - Fuzzy finding without the fuzzy thinking
• minimal-git.lua - Git integration stripped to essentials

Philosophy

Every plugin evaluated by modified TCWM scoring:

• Time saved vs configuration time
• Cognitive load when context switching
• Weight on startup time
• Multi-file editing capability

Current setup boots in ~50ms. Fast enough to capture thoughts before they escape.

Usage Patterns

• Primary: Markdown/Wiki editing for the archive
• Secondary: Quick scripts for data munging
• Tertiary: Viewing JSON responses from personal APIs

TODO

• [ ] Document specific keybindings
• [ ] Add configuration for LSP (when needed)
• [ ] Consider removing more defaults from LazyVim
