Neovim Configuration Flake

This is the Neovim configuration for all my NixOS and Nix enabled systems (such as with nix-darwin on macOS). It aims to be minimal and utilitarian; it forgoes blingful features like status lines, sidebars, or fancy UI enhancements in favor of native (neo)Vim, while still having everything useful you'd expect, like LSPs, file explorer (yazi), completions, advanced language tools, and QoL enhancements.

It uses the Nixvim project under the hood to declaratively configure Neovim and its plugins, and installs some LSPs and other tools needed by it (like yazi, fd, etc).

It simply outputs a package, called nvim. It can be called just like the regular nvim package, except it bundles all of my custom configuration and their dependencies with the power of Nix.

You can try it, remotely, in one line:

nix run 'github:youwen5/neovim-flake'

Feel free to fork or copy the config to use yourself. It's free in the public domain.

Thanks to this gist for showing me how to build a Nixvim configuration as a standalone Nix package.

Usage

Add it to your flake inputs, and import homeManagerModules.default as a home-manager module:

# flake.nix
{
  description = "Your system configuration flake.";

  inputs = {
    # -- snip --
    neovim-config = {
      url = "github:youwen5/neovim-flake";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
    # -- snip --
  };
  # -- snip --
}

# Wherever you're setting up your home-manager modules:

home-manager.users.<your-username> = {
  imports = [
    # -- snip --
    inputs.neovim-config.homeManagerModules.default
    # -- snip --
  ];
};
