+Link to kickstart repo
+https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim
 
-* Small
-* Single-file
-* Completely Documented
-
-**NOT** a Neovim distribution, but instead a starting point for your configuration.

 Kickstart.nvim targets *only* the latest
 ['stable'](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/tag/stable) and latest
 ['nightly'](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/tag/nightly) of Neovim.
-If you are experiencing issues, please make sure you have the latest versions.
 
 ### Install External Dependencies
 
-External Requirements:
 - Basic utils: `git`, `make`, `unzip`, C Compiler (`gcc`)
 - [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation),
   [fd-find](https://github.com/sharkdp/fd#installation)
@@ -29,209 +23,24 @@ External Requirements:
 - A [Nerd Font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/): optional, provides various icons
   - if you have it set `vim.g.have_nerd_font` in `init.lua` to true
 - Emoji fonts (Ubuntu only, and only if you want emoji!) `sudo apt install fonts-noto-color-emoji`
-- Language Setup:
-  - If you want to write Typescript, you need `npm`
-  - If you want to write Golang, you will need `go`
-  - etc.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> See [Install Recipes](#Install-Recipes) for additional Windows and Linux specific notes
-> and quick install snippets
 
 ### Install Kickstart
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> [Backup](#FAQ) your previous configuration (if any exists)
-
-Neovim's configurations are located under the following paths, depending on your OS:
-
-| OS | PATH |
-| :- | :--- |
-| Linux, MacOS | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim`, `~/.config/nvim` |
-| Windows (cmd)| `%localappdata%\nvim\` |
-| Windows (powershell)| `$env:LOCALAPPDATA\nvim\` |
-
-#### Recommended Step
-
-[Fork](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo) this repo
-so that you have your own copy that you can modify, then install by cloning the
-fork to your machine using one of the commands below, depending on your OS.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> Your fork's URL will be something like this:
-> `https://github.com/<your_github_username>/kickstart.nvim.git`
-
-You likely want to remove `lazy-lock.json` from your fork's `.gitignore` file
-too - it's ignored in the kickstart repo to make maintenance easier, but it's
-[recommended to track it in version control](https://lazy.folke.io/usage/lockfile).
-
-#### Clone kickstart.nvim
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> If following the recommended step above (i.e., forking the repo), replace
-> `nvim-lua` with `<your_github_username>` in the commands below
-
-<details><summary> Linux and Mac </summary>
-
-```sh
-git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"/nvim
-```
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary> Windows </summary>
-
-If you're using `cmd.exe`:
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git "%localappdata%\nvim"
-```
-
-If you're using `powershell.exe`
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim.git "${env:LOCALAPPDATA}\nvim"
-```
-
-</details>
-
-### Post Installation
-
-Start Neovim
-
-```sh
-nvim
-```
-
-That's it! Lazy will install all the plugins you have. Use `:Lazy` to view
-the current plugin status. Hit `q` to close the window.
-
-#### Read The Friendly Documentation
-
-Read through the `init.lua` file in your configuration folder for more
-information about extending and exploring Neovim. That also includes
-examples of adding popularly requested plugins.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For more information about a particular plugin check its repository's documentation.
-
+After cloning, move files into ~/.config/nvim/
 
 ### Getting Started
 
 [The Only Video You Need to Get Started with Neovim](https://youtu.be/m8C0Cq9Uv9o)
 
-### FAQ
-
-* What should I do if I already have a pre-existing Neovim configuration?
-  * You should back it up and then delete all associated files.
-  * This includes your existing init.lua and the Neovim files in `~/.local`
-    which can be deleted with `rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/`
-* Can I keep my existing configuration in parallel to kickstart?
-  * Yes! You can use [NVIM_APPNAME](https://neovim.io/doc/user/starting.html#%24NVIM_APPNAME)`=nvim-NAME`
-    to maintain multiple configurations. For example, you can install the kickstart
-    configuration in `~/.config/nvim-kickstart` and create an alias:
-    ```
-    alias nvim-kickstart='NVIM_APPNAME="nvim-kickstart" nvim'
-    ```
-    When you run Neovim using `nvim-kickstart` alias it will use the alternative
-    config directory and the matching local directory
-    `~/.local/share/nvim-kickstart`. You can apply this approach to any Neovim
-    distribution that you would like to try out.
-* What if I want to "uninstall" this configuration:
-  * See [lazy.nvim uninstall](https://lazy.folke.io/usage#-uninstalling) information
-* Why is the kickstart `init.lua` a single file? Wouldn't it make sense to split it into multiple files?
-  * The main purpose of kickstart is to serve as a teaching tool and a reference
-    configuration that someone can easily use to `git clone` as a basis for their own.
-    As you progress in learning Neovim and Lua, you might consider splitting `init.lua`
-    into smaller parts. A fork of kickstart that does this while maintaining the
-    same functionality is available here:
-    * [kickstart-modular.nvim](https://github.com/dam9000/kickstart-modular.nvim)
-  * Discussions on this topic can be found here:
-    * [Restructure the configuration](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/issues/218)
-    * [Reorganize init.lua into a multi-file setup](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/pull/473)
-
-### Install Recipes
+## Install Recipes
 
 Below you can find OS specific install instructions for Neovim and dependencies.
 
 After installing all the dependencies continue with the [Install Kickstart](#Install-Kickstart) step.
 
-#### Windows Installation
-
-<details><summary>Windows with Microsoft C++ Build Tools and CMake</summary>
-Installation may require installing build tools and updating the run command for `telescope-fzf-native`
-
-See `telescope-fzf-native` documentation for [more details](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim#installation)
-
-This requires:
-
-- Install CMake and the Microsoft C++ Build Tools on Windows
-
-```lua
-{'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim', build = 'cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release && cmake --build build --config Release && cmake --install build --prefix build' }
-```
-</details>
-<details><summary>Windows with gcc/make using chocolatey</summary>
-Alternatively, one can install gcc and make which don't require changing the config,
-the easiest way is to use choco:
-
-1. install [chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install)
-either follow the instructions on the page or use winget,
-run in cmd as **admin**:
-```
-winget install --accept-source-agreements chocolatey.chocolatey
-```
-
-2. install all requirements using choco, exit the previous cmd and
-open a new one so that choco path is set, and run in cmd as **admin**:
-```
-choco install -y neovim git ripgrep wget fd unzip gzip mingw make
-```
-</details>
-<details><summary>WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)</summary>
-
-```
-wsl --install
-wsl
-sudo add-apt-repository ppa:neovim-ppa/unstable -y
-sudo apt update
-sudo apt install make gcc ripgrep unzip git xclip neovim
-```
-</details>

-What is Kickstart?
-
-  Kickstart.nvim is *not* a distribution.
-
-  Kickstart.nvim is a starting point for your own configuration.
-    The goal is that you can read every line of code, top-to-bottom, understand
-    what your configuration is doing, and modify it to suit your needs.
-
-    Once you've done that, you can start exploring, configuring and tinkering to
-    make Neovim your own! That might mean leaving Kickstart just the way it is for a while
-    or immediately breaking it into modular pieces. It's up to you!
-
-    If you don't know anything about Lua, I recommend taking some time to read through
-    a guide. One possible example which will only take 10-15 minutes:
-      - https://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/lua/
-
-    After understanding a bit more about Lua, you can use `:help lua-guide` as a
-    reference for how Neovim integrates Lua.
-    - :help lua-guide
-    - (or HTML version): https://neovim.io/doc/user/lua-guide.html
-
-Kickstart Guide:
-
-  TODO: The very first thing you should do is to run the command `:Tutor` in Neovim.
-
-    If you don't know what this means, type the following:
-      - <escape key>
-      - :
-      - Tutor
-      - <enter key>
-
-    (If you already know the Neovim basics, you can skip this step.)
-
-  Once you've completed that, you can continue working through **AND READING** the rest
-  of the kickstart init.lua.
-
-  Next, run AND READ `:help`.
-    This will open up a help window with some basic information
-    about reading, navigating and searching the builtin help documentation.
-
-    This should be the first place you go to look when you're stuck or confused
-    with something. It's one of my favorite Neovim features.
-
-    MOST IMPORTANTLY, we provide a keymap "<space>sh" to [s]earch the [h]elp documentation,
-    which is very useful when you're not exactly sure of what you're looking for.
-
-  I have left several `:help X` comments throughout the init.lua
-    These are hints about where to find more information about the relevant settings,
-    plugins or Neovim features used in Kickstart.
-
-   NOTE: Look for lines like this
-
-    Throughout the file. These are for you, the reader, to help you understand what is happening.
-    Feel free to delete them once you know what you're doing, but they should serve as a guide
-    for when you are first encountering a few different constructs in your Neovim config.
-
-If you experience any errors while trying to install kickstart, run `:checkhealth` for more info.
-
-I hope you enjoy your Neovim journey,
-- TJ
-
-P.S. You can delete this when you're done too. It's your config now! :)
