Setting up Vim on Fedora

Since every time I am about to install Vim I forgot how to set it up, set it as default system wide text editor and so on I figure I’ll write it down once and for all.
First of all let’s install Vim, specifically the so called enhanced version which is capable of loading plugins and colorschemes:

[user@Fedora ~]# sudo dnf install vim
### powerline plugin
[user@Fedora ~]# sudo dnf install vim-plugin-powerline

I personally really like molokay colorscheme from tomasr; putting it in the default colorscheme directory does the trick if we want to use it for every user.
