For NeoVim there is https://github.com/nix-community/nixvim. I wrote a blog post some time ago how you can achieve integrated development tooling with flakes + nixvim: https://juuso.dev/blogPosts/modular-neovim/modular-neovim-with-nix.html

I would propose to try Nixvim.

Cool. Have you checked nixvim? Tons of options, and quite straightforward to include your own in the right place.

I use plain in the sense that it isn't configured for me, but I use this flake to make it easy to do so myself https://github.com/pta2002/nixvim

I am one of the maintainers of nixvim and I wanted to present it here.

This isn't exactly the answer for your problem but I've been using this for my config and haven't looked back. https://github.com/pta2002/nixvim

Now, if you want to adopt a more "nixy" approach, I suggest you to take a look at nixvim. I do not use this project personally but it looks very promising.

Not OP, but I had the same question. I would prefer to manage my nvim config not the NixOS way.

You might also have a look at my recent commit on my "develop" branch https://github.com/Allaman/nvim/commit/1b587f16d074755c94a8692925dfcbf5344fb7d4

Allaman's Neovim Config

In my config I have these lines

From time to time I build my Dockerfile to test if my config would run on a fresh system or if an issue might only be related to my host

It is working for me but I am not aware of any "special" setting I made. here is My cofing maybe you can get an idea. ([go](https://github.com/Allaman/nvim/blob/main/lua/config/go.lua), [lsp](https://github.com/Allaman/nvim/tree/main/lua/config/lsp)]])

There is only one LSP running for in my Neovim My config for reference

Thanks for your inspiration ;) https://github.com/Allaman/nvim/commit/78e32885972947240b0907df6a8a1cceea9fce19

in the last couple of weeks I noticed some Neovim crashes (segmentation faults says my terminal) and I wonder if I am alone? Before that I never had crashes and now at least two a day. Neovim head and here is my config
