Description

Turn your browser into a Neovim GUI.

This Chrome extension lets you use Neovim directly from your browser. Contrary to other extensions, it does not open a new OS window.

In order to install it you need:
- This Chrome addon
- Neovim >=0.4.0
- The firenvim neovim plugin: https://github.com/glacambre/firenvim
- Once the firenvim neovim plugin is installed, run `:call firenvim#install()`

After 2 weeks of firevim, I've turned off this extension and gone back to viminium and w3m. I love the idea and I'd love to see firevim dev team to continue working on this. But for now this extension is getting in my way a lot. It's alternating one of the key workflows I value so I'm sorry I'm disabling firevim. This is definitely a dream extension to have. Thank you for developing this. May be I'll use it again for some automation hack in the future, but for now I gotta say it's far from production quality.

It seemed great at first, but it has a lot of problems. It doesn't load every time. The instructions at the GitHub repo are loaded with errors that you'll need to understand Lua to correct. Worst of all, it has a tendency to leave a lot "nvim --headless" processes running even after the browser has been closed. This is not malicious, but it's also not production quality.
