Nwin
This is an experimental Neovim UI that creates a new OS window for each Neovim window, all backed by the same neovim server. This enables performing window management using i3/sway's regular window-management features.
Why use this
If you don't care about controlling neovim windows from the comfort of Sway, there is absolutely no reason. Neovim-qt, Goneovim and Neovide are all much more polished.
Dependencies
- The ext-win branch of my neovim fork (make sure it's compiled and first in your path!).
- SDL and its ttf library (
sudo apt install libsdl2 libsdl2-ttf
) - The font NotoSansMono-Regular.ttf in
$HOME/downloads/NotoSansMono
(yes, really). - A very strong stomach if you're going to look at the code.
