- **New Website**: There’s a whole new website with a fresh look and improved

- **Spec Resolution & Merging**: the code that resolves a final spec from a
plugin’s fragments has been rewritten. This should be a tiny bit faster, but
more importantly, fixes some issues and is easier to maintain.
- `rocks`: specs can now specify a list of rocks (luarocks
<https://luarocks.org/>) that should be installed.
- Packages <https://lazy.folke.io/packages> can now specify their dependencies
and configuration using one of:
- **Lazy**: `lazy.lua` file
- **Rockspec**: luarocks <https://luarocks.org/> `*-scm-1.rockspec` file <https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Rockspec-format>
- **Packspec**: `pkg.json` (experimental, since the format <https://github.com/neovim/packspec/issues/41> is not quite there yet)
- Packages are not limited to just Neovim plugins. You can install any
**luarocks** package, like:
>lua
{ "https://github.com/lubyk/yaml" }
<
Luarocks packages without a `/lua` directory are never lazy-loaded, since
it’s just a library.
- `build` functions or `*.lua` build files (like `build.lua`) now run
asynchronously. You can use `coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress.
Yielding will also schedule the next `resume` to run in the next tick, so you
can do long-running tasks without blocking Neovim.

8. 📚 Plugin Developers *lazy.nvim-📚-plugin-developers*
8. 🔥 Developers *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers*

To make it easier for users to install your plugin, you can include a package
spec </packages> in your repo.

If your plugin needs a build step, you can specify this in your **package
file**, or create a file `build.lua` or `build/init.lua` in the root of your
repo. This file will be loaded when the plugin is installed or updated.

This makes it easier for users, as they no longer need to specify a `build`
command.
BEST PRACTICES *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers-best-practices*

- If your plugin needs `setup()`, then create a simple `lazy.lua` file like this:
>lua
return { "me/my-plugin", opts = {} }
<
- Plugins that are pure lua libraries should be lazy-loaded with `lazy = true`.
>lua
{ "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", lazy = true }
<
- Only use `dependencies` if a plugin needs the dep to be installed **AND**
loaded. Lua plugins/libraries are automatically loaded when they are
`require()`d, so they don’t need to be in `dependencies`.
- Inside a `build` function or `*.lua` build file, use
`coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress.
- Don’t change the `cwd` in your build function, since builds run in parallel
and changing the `cwd` will affect other builds.


BUILDING *lazy.nvim-🔥-developers-building*

The spec **build** property can be one of the following:

- `fun(plugin: LazyPlugin)`: a function that builds the plugin.
- `*.lua`: a Lua file that builds the plugin (like `build.lua`)
- `":Command"`: a Neovim command
- `"rockspec"`: this will run `luarocks make` in the plugin’s directory
This is automatically set by the `rockspec` package </packages> source.
- any other **string** will be run as a shell command
- a `list` of any of the above to run multiple build steps
- if no `build` is specified, but a `build.lua` file exists, that will be used instead.

Build functions and `*.lua` files run asynchronously in a coroutine. Use
`coroutine.yield(status_msg)` to show progress. Yielding will also schedule the
next `coroutine.resume()` to run in the next tick, so you can do long-running
tasks without blocking Neovim.
