neovim-qt for Windows

Overview and purpose

Neovim-Qt is a graphical front end built on the Qt5 framework that connects to the Neovim editor. It functions as a client interface, delivering a polished, responsive windowed experience while exposing Neovim’s powerful editing features. The application is particularly well suited for developers and users who prefer a GUI while retaining Neovim’s modal editing model.
