brew install neovim

This is the recommended way to install Neovim.

Installation on Ubuntu

sudo apt update
sudo apt install neovim

Note that the Neovim installed might be an old version. Use Homebrew of AppImage instead if you want a newer version of Neovim.

Tips and Traps

  1. AstroNvim is the BEST configuration framework for NeoVim.

  2. NeoVim with a complicated configuration (e.g., AstroNvim, SpaceVim, etc) might be too slow when editing a large (>50M) text file. One trick helps is to disable plugins when editing large files. For example, you can use the following command to edit a large file without loading plugins.

    nvim --noplugin /path/to/large/text/file
