Lua plugin startup time

Most Lua plugins are not using the same style of configuration as vimL plugins. let g:my_var is a global variable, and I believe most people prefer not having a ton of global variables for configuration!

Right.

You can read all the features of packer.

I should have mentionned that I was aware of packer and I was wondering about the native features in NeoVim to avoid loading the a lot of Lua code just for the setup.

@muniter

Soon some plugins will start lazy loading themselves so when you call setup they setup the basics, and when needed load the rest, this is a process while people learn the best way to write lua plugins.

I guess that answer my question about the native features

Here’s also a guide/tips somebody wrote on reddit.

Thanks, that’s interesting!
