nvim-nix v2

A Neovim configuration as a Nix flake ❄️ template

This flake uses nixvim to configure neovim in a declarative manner. Since this configuration uses nixvim, this means that it is entirely written in Nix with some custom Lua sprinkled in here and there.

Running the flake

To run this nix flake simply run the following command

nix run github:dileep-kishore/neovim

Note

You will need to install the nix package manager before you can run the previous command

Or you can use home-manager to add this flake to your setup like so:

{
    inputs.neovim = {
      url = "github:dileep-kishore/neovim";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
}

And then install it by adding inputs.neovim.packages.${system}.default to your packages

Manual Installation
