hi all, i tried installing through apt and got an older 0.6.4 and i tried installing through an appimage but for some reason nvchad didnt accept it. also what is nerdfonts and is that the default for linux mint? been at this for an hour and am very confused

  • I’m a heavy neovim user, also using Linux mint. I use the app image from the GitHub release page. Sure it means having it not automated, but that’s fine with me.

    Basically download the appimage, make it executable with chmod +x and move it to a location in your PATH, line ~/.local/bin/nvim (nvim being the name of the file, add that to your path. Another popular location might be /usr/local/bin/nvim). Afterwards, you can just use nvim in your terminal.

      does that work for flatpak and does nvchad work on the flatpak? can you test both to see if they work before you confirm cause yk how to do this stuff better than me. if nvchad doesnt work on flatpak, i’ll try this! also how do i add those directories to path and how do i use the chmod command. getting used to this apologies!
