Neovim for Beginners — Code Context
In the previous articles, we learned how to customize the window bar, and use the lualine.nvim
plugin to show the current code context together with other information like diagnostics.
In this article, we will customize the code context further to add the absolute or relative line number to ease navigation.
This article is part of the Neovim for Beginners series.
The Neovim configuration files are available in this repository.

Getting Started
Code Context using Tree-sitter
The nvim-treesitter-context
plugin shows the current code context using Tree-sitter.
For this plugin, depending on the relativenumber
option, it shows the line number relative to the current cursor position, or the actual line number.
