About:
neovim-qt is a Qt-based graphical user interface for Neovim. It provides a native GUI experience across platforms with features like externalized UI elements, rendering performance, and integration with the system clipboard. This allows users to leverage Neovim's power with a modern interface.
Key Features:
  • Qt-based native GUI for cross-platform consistency
  • Externalized UI elements (menus, popup menus, command line)
  • High-performance rendering and font ligatures support
  • Integration with system clipboard and drag-and-drop
Use Cases:
  • Daily text editing with a graphical Neovim interface
  • Migrating from Vim/GVim to Neovim with a native GUI
  • Development workflows requiring GUI features like menus and file dialogs
Alternatives:
  • nvim – Terminal-only Neovim instance; neovim-qt provides the GUI layer on top
  • neovide – Rust-based GPU-accelerated Neovim GUI with animations; neovim-qt uses Qt for a more traditional native look
