NvChad install with Go Language server support

Install NVChad for Go

Installning NvChad (nvim ide) with support for Go Language Server (gopls). This worked for me (on a mac) and it's very easy. Wish I had known this BEFORE spending hours googling and searching for how to add Gopls support.

Steps

Follow steps to install nvim. Once nvim is installed run these commands:

rm -rf ~/.config/nvim
rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim
rm -rf ~/.cache/nvim
git clone https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad.git ~/.config/nvim
nvim

This will install NvChad, when you get to a screen that says:

When it askes you:

Do you want to install example custom config? (y/N) :

Type y and hit enter -- we'll need this custom config later
Follow the prompts until you get to a screen that says:

NOTES

Here type :q to exit nvim
Once back at the command prompt, type:

sed -i.bak 's/"clangd"/"clangd", "gopls"/g' ~/.config/nvim/lua/custom/configs/lspconfig.lua

-- that's it. Edit a Go file and you should have full LSP support using gopls!
