Debian-based Development Environment Setup

This repository contains a script to set up a development environment on Debian-based Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint, etc.), focusing on Neovim, tmux, and related tools.

Features

• Installs and configures Neovim with useful plugins
• Sets up tmux with a basic configuration
• Installs Node.js (optional)
• Configures Git and other essential development tools

Compatibility

This script is designed to work on Debian-based Linux distributions that use the apt package manager. It has been tested on:

• Ubuntu
• Debian

It may also work on other Debian derivatives like Linux Mint or Elementary OS, but hasn't been extensively tested on these platforms.
