# Neovim Configuration Technical Context

## Technologies Used
1. Core Technologies:
   - Neovim - Core editor
   - Lua - Configuration language
   - Kickstart Framework - Configuration foundation
   - lazy.nvim - Plugin manager

2. LSP Technologies:
   - mason.nvim - LSP/DAP/Linter manager
   - nvim-lspconfig - LSP configuration
   - nvim-cmp - Completion engine
   - LuaSnip - Snippet engine

3. Development Tools:
   - nvim-dap - Debug Adapter Protocol
   - nvim-lint - Linting framework
   - nvim-treesitter - Syntax highlighting
   - nvim-autopairs - Auto-pairing
   - telescope.nvim - Fuzzy finding

## Development Setup
1. Required Components:
   - Neovim >= 0.8.0
   - Git for plugin management
   - Lua >= 5.1
   - Python 3.11.9 (configured for Neovim)
   - (Optional) Nerd Font for icons

2. Language Support Dependencies:
   - Language servers (managed by mason.nvim)
   - Debug adapters (managed by mason-nvim-dap)
   - Linters (managed by mason-nvim-lint)

## Technical Constraints
1. Performance Considerations:
   - Lazy loading for improved startup time
   - Event-based plugin loading
   - Efficient LSP configuration

2. System Requirements:
   - Sufficient memory for LSP servers
   - Storage space for installed tools
   - Compatible terminal emulator

3. Integration Limitations:
   - LSP server availability
   - Debug adapter compatibility
   - Linter tool requirements

## Configuration Architecture
1. Plugin Management:
   - Lazy loading based on events/commands
   - Clear dependency specifications
   - Plugin-specific configurations

2. Language Support:
   - Extensive LSP server configurations
   - Language-specific formatters
   - Custom debugging setups

3. User Interface:
   - Terminal-based UI
   - Status line integration
   - Diagnostic displays
   - Debug UI integration

## Tool Configuration
1. Debug Adapters:
   - delve for Go
   - debugpy for Python
   - Custom keymaps (F1-F7, leader keys)

2. Linters:
   - dockerfile: hadolint
   - json: jsonlint
   - markdown: markdownlint
   - python: pylint
   - terraform: tflint

3. Formatters:
   - Managed through conform.nvim
   - Language-specific formatting tools
   - Format-on-save capabilities
