# neovim-flake
A highly configurable nix flake for neovim.
## Documentation
See the [neovim-flake Manual](https://notashelf.github.io/neovim-flake/) for documentation, available options, and release notes.
If you want to dive right into trying neovim-flake you can get a fully featured configuration with `nix` language support by running:
```console
nix run github:notashelf/neovim-flake
```
## Help
You can create an issue on the [issue tracker](issues) to ask questions or report bugs. I am not yet on spaces like matrix or IRC, so please use the issue tracker for now.
## Philosophy
The philosophy behind this flake configuration is to create an eaesily configurable and reproducible neovim environment. While it does sacrifice in size (which I know some users
will find *disagreeable*), it offers a lot of flexibility and configurability. It is also very easy to add your own plugins and configuration. Whether you are a developer, writer, or live coder (see tidal cycles below!), quickly craft a config that suits every project's need. Think of it like a distribution of Neovim that takes advantage of pinning vim plugins and third party dependencies (such as tree-sitter grammars, language servers, and more).
As a result, one should never get a broken config when setting options. If setting multiple options results in a broken neovim, file an issue! Each plugin knows when another plugin which allows for smart configuration of keybindings and automatic setup of things like completion sources and languages.
## Credit
This configuration is based on a few other configurations, including:

I am grateful for their work and inspiration.
