A focused Neovim frontend built with GPUI. This is an early development release.

New in 0.0.2

  • Native Ghostty terminal pane: toggle with Ctrl+backtick, the Terminal menu or :ZvimTerminal.
  • Terminal colours follow Neovim live, including NvChad/Base46. Settings can retain your Ghostty theme instead.
  • Install or update the zvim command from Settings, choosing your bin directory. No Python is required.
  • Improved window-close and Quit behaviour: confirm terminal shutdown before closing the editor, preserve the session on Cancel, and skip warnings for idle prompts detected by shell integration.
  • Retain terminal content behind close dialogs. After quitting Neovim directly, Keep Terminal expands the remaining session to fill the window.
  • macOS and Linux project scope; Windows support removed.

Install

Requires macOS 13 or newer. Apple Silicon Macs use macos-arm64; Intel Macs use macos-x86_64. Move Zvim.app to Applications, then launch it. Use Settings → Command-line launcher to install the optional CLI. Keep the chosen bin directory on your shell's PATH.

Bundled Neovim 0.12.5 loads your existing Neovim configuration. No separate Ghostty installation is required. SHA256SUMS.txt contains archive checksums.

Known limitations

The terminal is experimental: one pane per window, with no tabs, search UI, persisted sessions or IME composition support. Linux requires Wayland for the terminal and remains experimental; this release ships macOS archives only. Apple Silicon has been exercised locally; Intel runtime and Linux desktop behaviour need further interactive testing.

macOS applications are ad-hoc signed, not Developer ID signed or notarised. Managed work laptops may require IT approval.
