|  |   * Yes! You can use [NVIM_APPNAME](https://neovim.io/doc/user/starting.html#%24NVIM_APPNAME)`=nvim-NAME` to maintain multiple configurations. For example you can install the kickstart configuration in `~/.config/nvim-kickstart` and create a script `~/bin/nvim-kickstart`: | ||||||

|  |     exec env NVIM_APPNAME=nvim-kickstart nvim "$@" | ||||||
|  |     ``` | ||||||
|  |     When you run Neovim with `nvim-kickstart` it will use the alternative config directory and the matching local directory: `~/.local/share/nvim-kickstart`. You can apply this approach to any Neovim distribution that you would like to try out. | ||||||
