Need assistance to setup NVim with TexLive
Thanks for a note about Evince and SVED in the help. I manage to make both forward and back synchronisation work. It's much more than I expected :)

My Mathematics PhD research workflow: LaTeX notes and instant pdf referencing
On recent-ish versions of evince it is possible to do a bit more via dbus. For example, forward and reverse synctex search between evince and vim over dbus is done at [1]. I use this when I use evince, but I acknowledge that it has stupid flaws.

Tools to Draw Diagrams programmatically
Take a look at TikZiT, which is a FOSS GUI for creating tikz files and also turning them into image files. I found it really useful for learning TikZ. Note that you don't need TikZiT to generate images, it's just an example of how it's done.

The best way to TikZ is to copy-paste from previous figures you've created.
The second best is to look for a similar figure on TeXample https://texample.net/tikz/examples/ or stack overflow https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/tikz-pgf
The third best option is to use squared paper to draw by hand, then transfer hand-drawn stuff into TikZ code. It's slow as hell, but works well if you build up a collection of components you can copy-paste into other figs later.
There are also some GUI tools you could try: https://www.mathcha.io/ https://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/cheunen/freetikz/freetikz.htm... https://tikzit.github.io/ etc. (more links in this thread https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/84890/does-there-exi... )

Draw a square frustum in perspective?
Its much much faster than writing the code, and the output is very clean. You can follow the instructions from the link. takes less than 30 min to set up and less than an hour to get comfortable with it. Its well worth the effort. I have used a configuration similar to the author's config from this page. And my work has been way faster this way.
What are some alternatives?
