How do I get the nice look as shown in the readme's demo?

My screenshot of the plugin is like

Which is different from the nice icons shown in readme.
I installed JetBrainsMono Nerd Font, and installed the render-markdown.nvim, but still my UI is very different.

You should change the default separator to:

separator = '---'

and the readme also had custom icons, example:

https://github.com/deathbeam/dotfiles/blob/master/nvim/.config/nvim/lua/config/copilot.lua#L41

And are you sure about the separator? It looks like this

[deathbeam]

Well render-markdown.nvim should be highlighting it in nicer way than that

[B1LLP4RK]

i checked how lazyvim configures, but it is definitely not ---. it is some another symbol that looks like it.

separator = '?�?�?�', -- Separator to use in chat

So am I supposed to go to the plugin directory directly and change lua/CopilotChat/config.lua or is there a better way?

[deathbeam]

Yes, change the plugin config when calling setup

[B1LLP4RK]

but it seems difficult to keep this setup as i have to find the plugin directory, which is not in my .config/nvim. I prefer to have all my tweaks and setups in that directory for easy tracking. Is there a way?

[deathbeam]

Probably, I have no clue how lazy.nvim works but you can override the configs somehow surely

Now I moved on to use Lazyvim, and It seems copilotchat has been tailored quite nicely here, very much like the demo.
