  • ueberzug

    ueberzug is a command line util which allows to display images in combination with X11. The user is expected to have knowledge of theoretical computer science. https://github.com/seebye/ueberzug/wiki/Troubleshooting/119e30f331799b30fb9594db29740685cb09425b

  • Images/pdf previews is where you'll have the most challenges. There's ueberzug which gets you images in the terminal, but unsure if it's possible to get them directly in neovim currently.

  • obsidian-vimrc-support

    A plugin for the Obsidian.md note-taking software

  • You can extend the built in features with your own config using this plugin: https://github.com/esm7/obsidian-vimrc-support

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • orgmode

    Orgmode clone written in Lua for Neovim 0.9+.

  • I use nvim-orgmode on my computer through Neovim, and keep that pushed up to Github (encrypted using transcrypt) but also have a Syncthing server setup on a Raspberry Pi.

  • transcrypt

    transparently encrypt files within a git repository (by elasticdog)

  • I use nvim-orgmode on my computer through Neovim, and keep that pushed up to Github (encrypted using transcrypt) but also have a Syncthing server setup on a Raspberry Pi.

  • zk

    A plain text note-taking assistant

  • I replaced obsidian with Neovim + https://github.com/mickael-menu/zk + some custom functions. I sync with Github and use the github mobile app for viewing notes. For viewing images you can use any markdown previewer

  • termux-archlinux

    You can use setupTermuxArch.bash 📲 to install Arch Linux in Termux on Amazon, Android, Chromebook and Windows. https://sdrausty.github.io/termux-archlinux/

  • The absolute easiest way to do it is to just use something like termux-archlinux, and then you can just install Neovim with the package manager of your choice. However as I noted above, I find that a chroot-ed (to provide a FHS-compliant filesystem) option is extremely slow. It might be worth a try though; I have an old Samsung S8 that has seen better days so perhaps newer stuff would perform better.
