# How to Install Neovim
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Linux
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Follow the official guide and download the appimage from the [release
|
|
||||||
page](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/nightly).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For some Linux systems, you may not be able to run the appimage. You can
|
|
||||||
directly download the tar ball from
|
|
||||||
[here](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/download/nightly/nvim-linux64.tar.gz)
|
|
||||||
and extract it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Windows
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The easiest way to install Neovim on Windows is via
|
|
||||||
[chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install). First, install chocolatey. Then
|
|
||||||
you can install neovim easily with
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
# install latest version of neovim
|
|
||||||
# choco install neovim --pre
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
choco install neovim
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To keep up-to-date with the latest features of Neovim, you may download the
|
|
||||||
latest release from GitHub and extract it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Mac
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It is recommended to install neovim via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) on maxOS.
|
|
||||||
Simply run the following command:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
# if you want to install latest version of neovim
|
|
||||||
# brew install --HEAD neovim
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
brew install neovim
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After Neovim is installed, you may need to add the directory where the neovim
|
|
||||||
executable (`nvim` on Linux and Mac, `nvim.exe` on Windows) resides to your
|
|
||||||
system `PATH`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Make sure that you can call `nvim` from the command line after all these setup.
