What is Goneovim?

Goneovim is a graphical frontend for Neovim, written in Go with Qt. It adds optional interface features such as smooth pixel scrolling, animated cursors, ligatures and indent guides while keeping Neovim as the editing engine. Its workspace feature manages multiple Neovim instances, and it can connect to a remote Neovim session.

This entry links to the publisher’s macOS ARM64 archive for Apple Silicon; Intel Macs have a separate x86_64 package. The current publisher README requires Neovim v0.11 or a nightly build and warns that the macOS application is unsigned.

Active development has stopped because Qt 5.15 reached end of life. The maintainer says only critical bug fixes and security updates will be addressed. The screenshot is a historical publisher example, not a capture of version 0.6.17.

What it offers

  • Smooth pixel scrolling, animated cursors and ligatures.
  • Optional indent guides and a scrollbar for navigating code.
  • Workspace management for multiple Neovim instances.
  • External GUI elements for tabs, completion menus and command-line messages.
  • Connect to a remote Neovim instance.

Good to know

  • Active development is discontinued; the publisher limits future work to critical bug fixes and security updates.
  • Requires Neovim; the current publisher README lists v0.11 or nightly.
  • The macOS application is unsigned, so macOS may show an unknown-developer warning.
  • The linked ARM64 archive is for Apple Silicon; Intel Macs require the separate x86_64 package.
