Designed for flexibility and ease of use, nvf allows you to easily configure your fully featured Neovim instance with a few lines of Nix. </a> </div> --- <div align="center"><p> [Features]: #features [Get Started]: #get-started [Documentation]: #documentation [Help]: #help [Contribute]: #contributing [FAQ]: #frequently-asked-questions [Credits]: #credits **[<kbd><br> Features <br></kbd>][Features]** **[<kbd><br> Get Started <br></kbd>][Get Started]** **[<kbd><br> Documentation <br></kbd>][Documentation]** **[<kbd><br> Help <br></kbd>][Help]** **[<kbd><br> Contribute <br></kbd>][Contribute]** **[<kbd><br> FAQ <br></kbd>][FAQ]** **[<kbd><br> Credits <br></kbd>][Credits]** </p></div> --- ## Features [standalone]: https://notashelf.github.io/nvf/index.xhtml#ch-standalone-installation [NixOS module]: https://notashelf.github.io/nvf/index.xhtml#ch-standalone-nixos [Home-Manager module]: https://notashelf.github.io/nvf/index.xhtml#ch-standalone-hm - **Simple**: One language to rule them all! Use Nix to configure everything, with additional Lua Support - **Reproducible**: Your configuration will behave the same _anywhere_. No surprises, promise! - **Portable**: nvf depends _solely_ on your Nix store, and nothing else. No more global binaries! Works on all platforms, without hassle. - Options to install [standalone], [NixOS module] or [Home-Manager module]. - **Customizable**: There are _almost no defaults_ to annoy you. nvf is fully customizable through the Nix module system. - Not comfortable with a full-nix config or want to bring your Lua config? You can do just that, no unnecessary restrictions. - **Well-documented**: Documentation is priority. You will _never_ face undocumented, obscure behaviour. - **Idiomatic**: nvf does things ✨ _the right way_ ✨ - the codebase is, and will, remain maintainable for myself and any contributors. ## Get Started [nvf manual]: https://notashelf.github.io/nvf/ [issue tracker]: https://github.com/NotAShelf/nvf/issues If you are not sold on the concepts of **nvf**, and would like to try out the default configuration before even _thinking about_ installing it, you may run the following in order to take **nvf** out for a spin. ```bash # Run the default package nix run github:notashelf/nvf ``` This will get you a feel for the base configuration and UI design. Though, none of the configuration options are final as **nvf** is designed to be modular and configurable. > [!TIP] > The flake exposes `#nix` as the default package, providing minimal language > support and various utilities. You may also use the `#nix` or `#maximal` > packages provided by the this flake to get try out different configurations. It is as simple as changing the target output to get a different configuration. For example, to get a configuration with large language coverage, run: ```bash # Run the maximal package nix run github:notashelf/nvf#maximal ``` Similar instructions will apply for `nix profile install`. However, you are recommended to instead use the module system as described in the manual. > [!NOTE] > The `maximal` configuration is quite large, and might take a while to build. > To get a feel for the configuration, use the default `nix` configuration. > Should you choose to try out the `maximal` configuration, using the binary > cache as described in the manual is _strongly_ recommended. If you are convinced, proceed to the next section to view the installation instructions. ## Documentation ### Installation The _recommended_ way of installing nvf is using either the NixOS or the Home-Manager module, though it is completely possible and no less supported to install **nvf** as a standalone package, or a flake output. See the rendered [nvf manual] for detailed and up-to-date installation guides, configurations, available options, release notes and more. Tips for installing userspace plugins is also contained in the documentation. > [!TIP] > While using NixOS or Home-Manager modules, > `programs.nvf.enableManpages = true;` will allow you to view option > documentation from the comfort of your terminal via `man 5 nvf`. The more you > know. Please create an issue on the [issue tracker] if you find the documentation lacking or confusing. Any improvements to the documentation through pull requests are also welcome, and appreciated. ## Getting Help If you are confused, stuck or would like to ask a simple question; you may create an issue on the [issue tracker] to ask questions or report bugs. We are not not yet on spaces like matrix or IRC, so please use the issue tracker for now. ## Contributing I am always looking for new ways to help improve this flake. If you would like to contribute, please read the [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) before submitting a pull request. You can also create an issue on the [issue tracker] before submitting a pull request if you would like to discuss a feature or bug fix. ## Frequently Asked Questions [appropriate issue template]: https://github.com/NotAShelf/nvf/issues/new/choose [list of branches]: https://github.com/NotAShelf/nvf/branches [list of open pull requests]: https://github.com/NotAShelf/nvf/pulls **Q**: What platforms are supported? <br/> **A**: nvf actively supports Linux and Darwin platforms using standalone Nix, NixOS or Home-Manager. Please take a look at the [nvf manual] for available installation instructions. **Q**: Can you add _X_? <br/> **A**: Maybe! It is not one of our goals to support each and every Neovim plugin, however, I am always open to new modules and plugin setup additions to **nvf**. Use the [appropriate issue template] and I will consider a module addition. As mentioned before, pull requests to add new features are also welcome. **Q**: A plugin I need is not available in **nvf**. What to do? <br/> **A**: **nvf** exposes several APIs for you to be able to add your own plugin configurations! Please see the documentation on how you may do this. **Q**: Main branch is awfully silent, is the project dead? <br/> **A**: No! Sometimes we branch out (e.g. `v0.6`) to avoid breaking userspace and work in a separate branch until we make sure the new additions are implemented in the most comfortable way possible for the end user. If you have not noticed any activity on the main branch, consider taking a look at the [list of branches] or the [list of open pull requests]. You may also consider _testing_ those release branches to get access to new features ahead of time and better prepare to breaking changes. ## Credits ### Contributors [mnw]: https://github.com/gerg-l/mnw nvf would not be what it is today without the awesome people below.
