Fancy and Blazing Fast start screen plugin of neovim

Hyper Doom

Feature

  • Low memory usage. dashboard does not store the all user configs in memory like header etc these string will take some memory. now it will be clean after you open a file. you can still use dashboard command to open a new one , then dashboard will read the config from cache.
  • Blazing fast

  'nvimdev/dashboard-nvim',
  event = 'VimEnter',
  config = function()
    require('dashboard').setup {

    }
  end,
  dependencies = { {'nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons'}}
}

Changed
  • Removed Session as a start screen plugin speed is first.if you want use session you can take a look at glepnir/dbsession.nvim
  • Removed Ueberzug script, as the Ueberzug author has deleted the repository.

TODO

  • I will write a plugin to implement some popular terminal evaluators image protocol then I think can make it work with dashboard
