 ### Introduction
 
 A starting point for Neovim that is:
 
-* Small (<500 lines)
-* Single-file
+* Small
+* Single-file (with examples of moving to multi-file)
 * Documented
 * Modular
 
-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.
+This repo is meant to be used as by **YOU** to begin your Neovim journey; remove the things you don't use and add what you miss.
 
-This repo is meant to be used as a starting point for a user's own configuration; remove the things you don't use and add what you miss. Please refrain from leaving comments about enabling / disabling particular languages out of the box.
+Distribution Alternatives:
+- [LazyVim](https://www.lazyvim.org/): A delightful distribution maintained by @folke (the author of lazy.nvim, the package manager used here)
 
 ### Installation
 
+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.
+
 * Backup your previous configuration
-* Copy and paste the kickstart.nvim `init.lua` into `$HOME/.config/nvim/init.lua` (Linux) or `~/AppData/Local/nvim/init.lua` (Windows)
-* Start Neovim (`nvim`) and run `:PackerInstall` - ignore any error message about missing plugins, `:PackerInstall` will fix that shortly
+* (Recommended) Fork this repo (so that you have your own copy that you can modify).
+* Clone the kickstart repo into `$HOME/.config/nvim/` (Linux/Mac) or `~/AppData/Local/nvim/` (Windows)
+  * If you don't want to include it as a git repo, you can just clone it and then move the files to this location
+* Start Neovim (`nvim`) and allow `lazy.nvim` to complete installation.
 * Restart Neovim
+* **You're ready to go!**
 
+Additional system requirements:
+- Make sure to review the readmes of the plugins if you are experiencing errors. In particular:
+  - [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep#installation) is required for multiple [telescope](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim#suggested-dependencies) pickers.
+- See as well [Windows Installation](#Windows-Installation)
 
-If there are languages that you don't want to use, remove their configuration and notes from your `init.lua` after copy and pasting (for example, in the mason configuration).
+### Configuration And Extension
 
-### Windows Installation
-
-Installation may require installing build tools, and updating the run command for `telescope-fzf-native`
+* Inside of your fork, feel free to modify any file you like! It's your fork!
+* Then there are two primary configuration options available:
+  * Include the `lua/kickstart/plugins/*` files in your configuration.
+  * Add new configuration in `lua/custom/plugins/*` files, which will be auto sourced using `lazy.nvim`
+    * NOTE: To enable this, you need to uncomment `{ import = 'custom.plugins' }` in your `init.lua`
 
-See `telescope-fzf-native` documention for [more details](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim#installation)
+You can also merge updates/changes from the repo back into your fork, to keep up-to-date with any changes for the default configuration
 
-This requires:
+#### Example: Adding an autopairs plugin
 
-- Install CMake, and the Microsoft C++ Build Tools on Windows
+In the file: `lua/custom/plugins/autopairs.lua`, add:
 
 ```lua
-use {'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim', run = 'cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release && cmake --build build --config Release && cmake --install build --prefix build' }
+-- File: lua/custom/plugins/autopairs.lua
+
+return {
+  "windwp/nvim-autopairs",
+  config = function()
+    require("nvim-autopairs").setup {}
+  end,
+}
 ```
 
-### Configuration
 
-You could directly modify the `init.lua` file with your personal customizations. This option is the most straightforward, but if you update your config from this repo, you may need to reapply your changes.
+This will automatically install `nvim-autopairs` and enable it on startup. For more information, see documentation for [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim).
 
-An alternative approach is to create a separate `custom.plugins` module to register your own plugins. In addition, you can handle further customizations in the `/after/plugin/` directory (see `:help load-plugins`). See the following examples for more information. Leveraging this technique should make upgrading to a newer version of this repo easier. 
+#### Example: Adding a file tree plugin
 
-#### Example `plugins.lua`
-
-The following is an example of a `plugins.lua` module (located at `$HOME/.config/nvim/lua/custom/plugins.lua`) where you can register your own plugins. 
+In the file: `lua/custom/plugins/filetree.lua`, add:
 
 ```lua
-return function(use)
-  use({
-    "folke/which-key.nvim",
-      config = function()
-        require("which-key").setup({})
-      end
-  })
-end
+return {
+  "nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim",
+  version = "*",
+  dependencies = {
+    "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
+    "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons", -- not strictly required, but recommended
+    "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim",
+  },
+  config = function ()
+    -- Unless you are still migrating, remove the deprecated commands from v1.x
+    vim.cmd([[ let g:neo_tree_remove_legacy_commands = 1 ]])
+
+    require('neo-tree').setup {}
+  end,
+}
 ```
 
-#### Example `defaults.lua`
+This will install the tree plugin and add the command `:NeoTree` for you. You can explore the documentation at [neo-tree.nvim](https://github.com/nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim) for more information.
+
+#### Example: Adding a file to change default options
 
-For further customizations, you can add a file in the `/after/plugin/` folder (see `:help load-plugins`) to include your own options, keymaps, autogroups, and more. The following is an example `defaults.lua` file (located at `$HOME/.config/nvim/after/plugin/defaults.lua`).

+INTRODUCTION                                                  *kickstart.nvim*
+
+Kickstart.nvim is a project to help you get started on your neovim journey.
+
+                                                            *kickstart-is-not*
+It is not:
+- Complete framework for every plugin under the sun
+- Place to add every plugin that could ever be useful
+
+                                                                *kickstart-is*
+It is:
+- Somewhere that has a good start for the most common "IDE" type features:
+    - autocompletion
+    - goto-definition
+    - find references
+    - fuzzy finding
+    - and hinting at what more can be done :)
+- A place to _kickstart_ your journey.
+    - You should fork this project and use/modify it so that it matches your
+      style and preferences. If you don't want to do that, there are probably
+      other projects that would fit much better for you (and that's great!)!
