    call minpac#init()
    call minpac#add('matveyt/neoclip', #{type: 'opt'})
    "... more plugins to follow

    if has('nvim')
        packadd! neoclip
    endif

2. Save the file and reload configuration

    :update | source %

3. Update the plugin from network repository

    :call minpac#update('neoclip')

Next, drop to your shell and compile platform-dependent module from source.
