There are a couple of repositories similar to this one, including its forks, to provide daily (or weekly?) up-to-date Neovim plugins. It would be nicer if a visitor can easily decide which one to use.

This repository has its own characteristics:

  • It only contains Awesome Neovim plugins.
  • It does not have plugin addition/deletion mechanisms: this repository delegates these kind of functionalities to Awesome Neovim.
  • Supports variety of code hosting services:
    • GitHub
    • GitLab
    • SourceHut
    • Codeberg
  • It does not provide any modules; it would be for anyone who wants to write configuration without wrapping it in Nix modules.
  • and more?

nixvim looks quite sophisticated, though I've never tried it out. However, it seems using Nixpkgs' vimPlugins, which means that a number of plugins in Awesome Neovim are not available and versions are a bit older than those in this repository.

Probably is it easy to override their vimPlugins? If it is, then combining nixvim and packages in this repository would work well.
