Introduction

SpaceVim is a community-driven vim distribution that seeks to provide layer feature. Layers help collect related packages together to provide features. This approach helps keep configuration organized and reduces overhead for the user by keeping them from having to think about what packages to install.

here is an example for loadding shell layer with some specified options:

[[layers]]
name = "shell"
default_position = "top"
default_height = 30

Disable layers

Some layers are enabled by defalut, here is an example for disable shell layer:

[[layers]]
name = "shell"
enable = false
