# NixVim - A Neovim configuration system for nix ## Other versions of these docs Please ensure you are referencing documentation that corresponds to the Nixvim version you are using! Documentation is currently available for the following versions: @DOCS_VERSIONS@ ## What is it? NixVim is a [Neovim](https://neovim.io) distribution built around [Nix](https://nixos.org) modules. It is distributed as a Nix flake, and configured through Nix, all while leaving room for your plugins and your vimrc. ## What does it look like? Here is a simple configuration that uses catppuccin as the colorscheme and uses the lualine plugin: ```nix { programs.nixvim = { enable = true; colorschemes.catppuccin.enable = true; plugins.lualine.enable = true; }; } ``` When we do this, lualine will be set up to a sensible default, and will use catppuccin as the colorscheme, no extra configuration required! Check out [this list of real world nixvim configs](./user-guide/config-examples.md)! ## Welcome to the docs! Over to the left, you'll find the sidebar. There you'll see several "User guides" (including an [FAQ](./user-guide/faq.md)]), along with pages for various "options". While you can search our main docs using the icon, if you're looking for a specific option you may find the dedicated [Nixvim Option Search](./search/index.html) (at the bottom of the sidebar) has more relevant results. > [!TIP] > Any page with a ❱ icon next to it has one-or-more _sub-pages_.
