Plugins

Hello, it is my first post here

I am using kickstart.nvim but I can’t figure out how to use snippets with it. I seems like not include a snippet plugin and I am not sure which one is better to use with this setup. unfortunately kickstart don’t have any type of forum to ask about this stuff, hope someone here know about it

Thanks

You might want to try LazyVim, which comes with everything set up for snippets.

Thanks
