Plugins

Each plugin is configured in its own module under nixvim/plugins/. Plugins marked with an option can be switched off (see Options); all others are always part of the configuration.

snacks.nvim

Always enabled. Enabled snacks: animate, bigfile, dim, indent, input, lazygit, notifier, picker, quickfile, scope, scratch (markdown scratch buffers), statuscolumn, terminal and words.

The pickers cover files, grep, buffers, recent projects, undo history, LSP definitions/references/symbols, diagnostics, location and quickfix lists, TODO comments and notifications. See Keymaps.

neo-tree

Always enabled. Opens as a floating window (<C-o>) with rounded borders, shows hidden and ignored files, follows the current file and closes when it is the last window. Inside the tree, l opens and h closes a node.

bufferline

Option zenvim.bufferline.enable. Always visible, slope separators, LSP diagnostic counts per buffer, close button on hover and an offset for the neotest summary. Colors match rose-pine.

mini.map

Option zenvim.miniMap.enable. Minimap with search, diagnostic and gitsigns integrations, toggled with <leader>mm.

persistence.nvim

Option zenvim.persistence.enable. Sessions are stored per directory and git branch under stdpath("state")/sessions/ and only saved when at least one file buffer is open.

Editing

blink.cmp	Completion from LSP, path, snippets, buffer and ripgrep; Rust fuzzy matcher
blink-ripgrep	Project-wide word completion (from 3 characters, up to 1 MB files, ignore case)
treesitter	All grammars, highlighting, indentation and folding (`foldlevel = 99`)

vim-sleuth	Detects indentation from the file
direnv	Loads `.envrc` environments, so project tools are found

Language tooling

These plugins are only enabled if at least one language uses the respective feature.

Plugin	Enabled when any language uses	Notes
lspconfig + inlay hints	`lsp`	`K` hover, `<C-k>` signature help, `<leader>lR` restart
conform.nvim	`format`	Formatting on demand with `<leader>lf` (async)
nvim-lint	`lint`	Runs on `BufReadPost`, `BufWritePost` and `InsertLeave`

neotest + nvim-coverage	`test`	Rounded floating windows, coverage reloads automatically

UI

lualine and navic

Always enabled. The statusline shows mode, file type and name, git diff, diagnostics, the attached LSP clients, search count, branch, position and file format. The winbar shows the working directory, navic breadcrumbs (depth 3) and, depending on the enabled features, macro recording state (noice), DAP status (any language with dap) and typing speed (tacho).

rose-pine

Always enabled, variant main. The background is transparent unless running in Neovide.

tiny-inline-diagnostic

Always enabled and replaces Neovim’s virtual text: multi-line diagnostics with source, count and icons, disabled in neo-tree.

noice.nvim

Option zenvim.noice.enable. Presets: bottom search, command palette, LSP doc borders, long messages in a split and inc-rename. <leader>na shows the message history.

Git

gitsigns (always): signs in the status column, inline blame of the current line, hunk preview, stage and reset.
Lazygit (always): opened through snacks with <leader>gg; lazygit is bundled.

Plugin	Option	What it does
tacho.nvim	`zenvim.tacho.enable`	Words per minute in the winbar
pentatonic.nvim	`zenvim.pentatonic.enable`	Plays pentatonic notes while typing (volume 5 %)
duck.nvim	`zenvim.duck.enable`	A duck that walks across the buffer
