neovim.io

Neovim is a hyperextensible Vim-based text editor with a first-class, versioned, documented API.
Extensions communicate through MessagePack, allowing plugins to be written in any language.
Remote plugins run as asynchronous co-processes, and GUIs, IDEs, or web browsers can embed Neovim as an editor or script host.
Neovim makes Lua plugin development easy and supports configuration in init.lua.
Its AST-producing parsing engine powers fast, accurate syntax highlighting, navigation, refactoring, text objects, and motions.
Neovim includes a built-in LSP client for features like go-to definition, find references, and formatting.
The client-server model supports :connect, :detach, and :restart, and multiple UIs can attach to one session.
Neovim aims to stay compatible with Vim’s editing model and Vimscript v1 while also supporting Lua.
The current stable release is 0.12, and the project says it uses about 30% less source code than Vim.
Popular Neovim UIs include Firenvim, vscode-neovim, Neovide, Goneovim, GNvim, FVim, Nvy, Neovim Qt, and VimR.
