A highly modular, configurable, extensible and easy to use Neovim configuration framework in Nix. Designed for flexibility and ease of use, this flake allows you to easily configure your Neovim instance with a few lines of Nix code.

Warning

Main branch is only updated for small, non-breaking changes. For the latest version of neovim-flake, please see the list of branches or open pull requests. neovim-flake, at the time, is still being actively developed - and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future.



Get Started

Using nix CLI

If you would like to try out the configuration before even thinking about installing it, you can run the following command

nix run github:notashelf/nvf

This will get you a feel for the base configuration and UI design. The flake exposes #nix as the default package, providing minimal language support and various utilities.You may also use #nix, #tidal or #maximal 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 tidal support, run:

nix run github:notashelf/nvf#tidal

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 massive and will take a while to build. To get a feel for the configuration, use the default nix or tidal configurations. Should you choose to try out the maximal configuration, using the binary cache as described in the manual is strongly recommended.

Documentation

See the nvf Manual for detailed installation guides, configurations, available options, release notes and more. Tips for installing userspace plugins is also contained in the documentation.

If you want to dive right into trying nvf you can get a fully featured configuration with nix language support by running:

nix run github:notashelf/nvf#nix

Please create an issue on the issue tracker if you find the documentation lacking or confusing. I also appreciate any contributions to the documentation.

Help

You can create an issue on the issue tracker to ask questions or report bugs. I am 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 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.

FAQ

Q: Can you add X?
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 appropritate issue template and I will consider a module addition.

Q: A plugin I need is not available in nvf. What to do?
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.
