About:
FVim is a cross-platform GUI frontend for Neovim built using F# and Fable. It leverages modern graphics APIs like Vulkan, DirectX, or Metal via Skia for high-performance rendering and smooth font rendering. The tool provides a native windowing experience while maintaining full compatibility with Neovim's backend and plugin ecosystem.
Key Features:
  • High-performance GPU-accelerated rendering using Skia
  • Native look and feel on Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Full Neovim 0.5+ API support including LSP
  • High-DPI and multi-monitor support
  • Highly configurable via Neovim init files
Use Cases:
  • Developers seeking a modern GUI experience for Neovim
  • Users requiring high-DPI support for text editors
  • Workflow optimization with GPU-accelerated rendering
Alternatives:
  • Neovide – Similar GPU-accelerated GUI, but written in Rust
  • nvim-qt – Official Qt-based GUI, more mature but less visually polished
  • GoNeovim – Alternative GUI written in Go, less feature-rich
