• If you are having issues with Tree-Sitter, then you might not have node js installed. The two quick solution to try are:
• sudo apt install tree-sitter-cli if that doesn't work, then you may need to install Node.js
• sudo apt install nodejs npm then Install Tree-sitter CLI globally with npm:
• sudo npm install -g tree-sitter-cli
• Verify the installation and restart NeoVim
• tree-sitter --version
• This config comes configured with Tabnine Auto Completion
