How to install Neovide

Neovide is developer utility. Treat this as an orientation note. Anything prescriptive should come from the maintainers directly.

Paths onto a machine

Expect differences between platforms. The same project may reach one system through a package index and another through a source build.

Who is behind it

Direction comes from the people who write the code. Their decisions on releases and support are the ones that matter.

Before touching anything

Start from the support matrix. It narrows over time, and assumptions made years ago often no longer hold.

Interpreting what you see

When results differ from expectations, check what is actually being picked up. Duplicate copies and stale caches are the usual explanation.

What this domain is

Only text is published from this domain. Each project remains exactly where its authors put it.

On reading release notes

Release notes are the cheapest way to catch a breaking change before it surprises you. They usually list platform shifts and removed defaults in the first few lines.
