What is a Neovim App?

Imagine a new kind of application that lives inside Neovim — not just a plugin that adds a feature here and there, but a fully-formed experience. A Neovim App is exactly that: a self-contained, interactive application that runs within your Neovim editor.

Unlike traditional plugins, a Neovim App is designed to feel like its own world. You can launch it from the command line, from a plugin, or as part of your workflow — and it renders its UI using ASCII characters, creating an immersive interface right in your terminal.

In short: a Neovim App isn’t just extending Neovim — it’s building on top of it. It’s a new way to think about what’s possible inside your editor.
