Opening init.lua starts loading workspace

[elijahmg]

Hey I'm pretty new to nvim.

This issue feels that I'm might have wrong setup or something. but every time I open init.lua as a config for nvim it shows loading workspace and it can take up to 2 mins.
I'd appreciate any idea why it's happening

Thx

If you are talking about the "loading workspace" messages in the bottom right corner:

This is normal. It means that the lua-language-server is loading all the modules required by your init.lua file. It needs to do that so that you can get autocompletion on things like this:

local plugin = require("my-plugin")
plugin.<tab>

eamonburns is right on point :)

Though if it takes 2 minutes maybe we should consider re-adding lazydev / switching to emmylua (if it is already stable enough)
