What is neovimcraft?

Updated

neovimcraft is a curated directory of Neovim plugins. You use it to search and browse plugins by category, and it also lists pre-made Neovim configurations. If you are looking for a plugin to solve a specific editing, LSP, or UI problem, this site is built for that kind of lookup.

What you can do on neovimcraft

  • Search plugins. The site describes itself as a place to "search through our curated list of neovim plugins." The directory reports 1368 results, with stars, creation date, and last-updated date shown for each entry.
  • Browse by category. Plugins are grouped into tags such as colorscheme (163), editing-support (114), programming-languages-support (108), lsp (80), utility (78), git (56), ai (52), bars-and-lines (44), code-runner (39), markdown-and-latex (38), note-taking (36), terminal-integration (36), and pre-made-configuration (35). Smaller tags include plugin-manager (10), snippet (10), completion (7), and telescope (2).
  • Find pre-made configurations. The pre-made-configuration category surfaces full setups rather than single plugins. Examples listed on the site include nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim (31,524 stars, created 2022-06-23, updated 2026-09-14), described as "A launch point for your personal nvim configuration"; siduck76/NvChad (28,503 stars, created 2021-03-07, updated 2026-07-03), described as a "Blazing fast Neovim framework providing solid defaults and a beautiful UI"; and LazyVim/LazyVim.
  • Submit a plugin. The site includes a "Submit a plugin" entry point, so the directory is open to additions beyond what is already indexed.

How to use it

  1. Open neovimcraft.com.
  2. Either type into the search field or pick a category tag that matches your need — for example, lsp if you want language server tooling, or colorscheme if you only want themes.
  3. Read the result card: repository name, star count, creation date, and last-updated date. The updated date is the most useful signal for whether a plugin is still maintained.
  4. Follow the link to the plugin's repository to read its own install and setup instructions. neovimcraft is a directory, not the plugin's documentation.

What it is not

neovimcraft does not host plugin code, and it does not replace each plugin's README. It also does not appear to be a package manager — installation still happens through whatever plugin manager your Neovim config uses. Treat the site as a discovery and comparison layer: it tells you what exists and roughly how popular or recent it is, then you go to the source for setup details.

When it is worth using

  • You know the problem ("I want better fuzzy finding") but not the plugin name.
  • You want to compare maintained options in one category without scrolling GitHub search results.
  • You are starting from scratch and want to see pre-made configurations like kickstart.nvim, NvChad, or LazyVim before building your own.
  • You maintain a plugin and want it listed in a curated index via the submit link.
