Run Python code on Neovim with Compiler.nvim

If you’re a Python developer using Neovim as your preferred code editor, you may have encountered the need to run Python code directly within Neovim. While Neovim does not come with built-in support for executing code, you can easily achieve this functionality with the help of a plugin called Compiler.nvim.

Compiler.nvim is a versatile plugin for Neovim that enables you to compile and run code from within the editor. It supports a wide range of programming languages, including Python, C, C++, Java, and more. With Compiler.nvim, you can quickly compile and execute your Python scripts without leaving Neovim.

To run Python code using Compiler.nvim, follow these steps:

1. Install Compiler.nvim by adding it to your Neovim plugin manager. You can do this by adding the following line to your Neovim configuration file:

      Plug 'lunixbochs/Compiler.nvim'
    

2. Reload your Neovim configuration and run the command to install the plugin:

      :PlugInstall
    

3. Once the plugin is installed, you can open a Python file in Neovim and use the :Make command to compile and execute the Python code. Compiler.nvim will display the output in a separate window within Neovim.

By using Compiler.nvim, you can streamline your Python development workflow and easily test and run your code without switching between different applications. Give it a try and see how it can improve your coding experience in Neovim!
