Neovim

Big thank you Laurent_C for the icon.

Fork of Vim aiming to improve user experience, plugins, and GUIs

Features

More powerful plugins

The msgpack API enables structured communication to and from any programming language. Remote plugins run as co-processes that communicate with Neovim safely and asynchronously.

Better out-of-the-box

• Strong defaults
• Modern terminal features such as cursor styling, truecolor and bracketed paste
• Built-in terminal emulator

First-class embedding

GUIs can nvim --embed or communicate via named pipe using the discoverable msgpack API.

Drop-in replacement for Vim

Neovim is an extension of Vim: feature-parity and backwards compatibility are high priorities. If you are already familiar with Vim, see :help nvim-from-vim to learn about the differences.
