Is it possible to integrate i3 windows with neovim splits?
I've been building a neovim UI that allocates one "OS window" per "Neovim window": https://github.com/glacambre/nwin . It's far from being usable as a daily-driver yet but I'm hoping to get there some day.

Neovim and multiple monitors
It is possible with https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/13504 , but as it hasn't been merged yet there aren't any UIs taking advantage of it (except one that I built in order to play around with that PR: https://github.com/glacambre/nwin ).

Do You Use Neovim's TUI or a GUI Client?
This sounds like goneovim

Looking for a neovim GUI with image previews
fvim and goneovim have support for gui-widgets.nvim which is a sort of protocol to define images and let Neovim GUIs display them.

Smooth neovim experience with high ping server?
but you can use a GUI like https://github.com/akiyosi/goneovim or https://github.com/neovide/neovide#remote-tcp-support

How do I enable file/document preview on the right as shown in the picture?
If you're fine with leaving the terminal, Goneovim has it built-in

Can we get a markdown plugin with a side by side preview, directly into Neovim?
Neovim in a terminal can only display monospaced characters. However there are GUIs for Neovim and Goneovim used to have a markdown preview.
-
Do we have any tile window manager for NeoVim? (Written in Lua preferred)
I think the main thing now is probably waiting for one of the nvim GUIs to develop the appropriate features. Goneovim looks like it's getting there and may already be good enough for your needs. E.g. you can break any nvim window (floats, splits etc) into a separate external desktop window.

Neovim LSP working with docker container files
you can start a headless neovim inside the container with nvim --listen 127.0.0.1:7777 --headless and then use something like goneovim (https://github.com/akiyosi/goneovim) to connect to this instance. all your tools (npm, linters etc) will be inside the container

Vim is the #4 most loved editor with a 70% rating, according to the 2021 Stackoverflow Developer Survey (Neovim is #1, VSCode #2)
Instead, Nvim provides an RPC protocol that may be implemented by external GUIs. For example, there exists a plugin that embeds Nvim into Firefox when editing textboxes, GUIs that leverage Nvim's multigrid support to support smooth scrolling, translucent popups, minimaps, etc. such as Uivonim, Goneovim and Neovide, and more.
