Introduction

Have you ever found yourself adding multiple dependencies to your code before installing them? Do you hate switching between your editor and terminal just to install libs? 🤔

LazyDeveloperHelper solves this problem! It's a Neovim plugin that lets you manage dependencies for:

• Python — via pip / poetry
• Rust — via Cargo
• Kotlin / Groovy — via Gradle + Maven Central
• JavaScript — via npm
• C++ — via NuGet / Conan / vcpkg (vim.ui.select to pick between them)
• C — via Conan
• Ruby — via gem
• Lua — via luarocks
• Golang — via go install
• Dart — via Dart CLI

...all directly from your editor. No terminal switching required.

Features

• ✨ Install packages for Python, Lua, JavaScript, Ruby, Rust, Kotlin, Go, Dart, C/C++ — without leaving Neovim
• ✨ Install from dependency files (requirements.txt, Cargo.toml) via :LazyDevInstallRequirements
• ✨ Quiet mode (-q / --quiet) to suppress output when you don't need the noise
• ✨ vim.notify() integration — tells you what's happening (or what broke)
• ✨ Compatible with modern Neovim configurations (>= 0.11.5)

Available Commands

:LazyDevInstall {lib}	Install a package for the current filetype

How to Support Me

If you want to support me — run :LazyDevDonation and pick a method that works for you.

The plugin will always stay free. No paywalls, no locked features. Donations are purely optional and entirely up to you — but they do help keep the updates coming. Thanks to everyone who does! 🙏
