To install Neovide, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To upgrade Neovide, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall Neovide, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download neovide --internalize --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade neovide -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade neovide -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

This package is likely a meta/virtual (*) or an installer (*.install) or portable (*.portable) application package.
- Meta/virtual (*) - has a dependency on the *.install or the *.portable package - it is provided for discoverability and for other packages to take a dependency on.
- Portable (*.portable/*.commandline (deprecated naming convention)/*.tool (deprecated naming convention)) - usually zips or archives that require no administrative access to install.
- Install (*.install/*.app (deprecated naming convention)) - uses native installers, usually requires administrative access to install.

This is a simple graphical user interface for Neovim (an aggressively refactored and updated
Vim editor). Where possible there are some graphical improvements, but functionally it should act like the terminal UI.
Features
Should be a standard fully featured Neovim GUI. Beyond that there are some visual niceties:
Ligatures
Supports ligatures and font shaping.
Animated Cursor
Cursor animates into position with a smear effect to improve tracking of cursor position.
Smooth Scrolling
Scroll operations on buffers in neovim will be animated smoothly pixel wise rather than line by line at a time. Note, multigrid must be
enabled for this to work.
https://github.com/neovide/neovide/wiki/Configuration#multigrid
Animated Windows
Windows animate into position when they are moved making it easier to see how layout changes happen. Note, multigrid must be enabled for
this to work.
https://github.com/neovide/neovide/wiki/Configuration#multigrid
Blurred Floating Windows
The backgrounds of floating windows are blurred improving the visual separation between foreground and background from
built in window transparency. Note, multigrid must be enabled for this to work.
https://github.com/neovide/neovide/wiki/Configuration#multigrid
Emoji Support
Font fallback supports rendering of emoji not contained in the configured font.
WSL Support
Neovide supports displaying a full gui window from inside wsl via the --wsl
command argument. Communication is passed via standard io into the wsl copy of neovim providing identical experience similar to visual studio code's remote editing https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview.
Remote TCP Support
Neovide supports connecting to a remote instance of Neovim over a TCP socket via the --remote-tcp
command argument. This would allow you to run Neovim on a remote machine and use the GUI on your local machine, connecting over the network.
Launch Neovim as a TCP server (on port 6666) by running:
nvim --headless --listen localhost:6666
And then connect to it using:
/path/to/neovide --remote-tcp=localhost:6666
By specifying to listen on localhost, you only allow connections from your local computer. If you are actually doing this over a network you will want to use SSH port forwarding for security, and then connect as before.
ssh -L 6666:localhost:6666 ip.of.other.machine nvim --headless --listen localhost:6666
Finally, if you would like to leave the neovim server running, close the neovide application window instead of issuing a :q
command.
Some Nonsense ;)
let g:neovide_cursor_vfx_mode = "railgun"
More to Come
We've got more ideas for simple unobtrusive improvements. More to come.
Configuration
Configuration is done almost completely via global neovide variables in your vim config and can be manipulated live at runtime. Details can be found here.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.

What's Changed
This release adds two major things
You can now enable box drawing to be done by Neovide instead of by the fonts. This eliminates gaps between characters. The feature is still experimental, and needs to be enabled separately, see https://neovide.dev/config-file.html?highlight=box#box-drawing
The default cursor animation has been changed to feel more responsive. The front of the cursor now moves to the destination immediately, while the trail is animating. Many of the cursor effects have also been fixed. Furthermore, Neovide now supports multiple effects at the same time. Finally, the defaults for some of the effects have been changed.
To restore the feel of older Neovide versions, you can start by lowering
neovide_cursor_trail_size
(https://neovide.dev/configuration.html?highlight=trail#animation-trail-size) to 0.7 and then adjust that and https://neovide.dev/configuration.html?highlight=trail#animation-length to your liking.We are also looking for feedback on theese new settings, so don't forget to share you favourite defaults here https://github.com/neovide/neovide/discussions/3077!
