Add nvf#339

Hey, I've noticed that |

You can probably create a new one. It'll take me a second to look at yours, but I'm starting with most recently created PRs |

Hmm... so if I'm understanding these projects correctly Nixvim and nvf differ on their approach to plugins, where Nixvim aims to pre-package every plugin (newbies to Vim should have an easy time, but anyone with an existing Neovim conf would effectively have to re-engineer your config to work around it (with bugs requiring extensive project and Neovim knowledge to fix) as I did back when I used it (using Helix now)) while nvf is a more direct-to-code in terms of structures, so you could, with a comparison template, easily convert an existing lua Neovim conf to it... If my understanding is correct, maybe the description could emphasize the ease of conversion? Otherwise the two projects look too similar at a quick glance, while they actually are two different approaches with key tradeoffs. We might also need to tweak the Nixvim description to differentiate the two 🤔 Oh, but the project itself does look awesome! |

When i was adding nvf i felt like the current Though I myself have an extremely minimal (singe-file; intentionally) nvim config so I didn't need to use the complex parts - like plugin setup - when trying out nvf and Nixvim. As such, i will need to research a bit more to concisely formulate descriptions with the differences between the two. Though i don't have much time rn., so if somebody is more proficient with neovim-nix stuff, maybe they could chime in and help :) |

Kinda easy to use. Feels pretty lightweight and mininal. My experience with
nixvimwas a bit less smooth.Nvf module has better rebuild times, docs are a bit more prioritized. For beginners will do a bit better, i think.
Although here I highlight that it is beginner-friendly, i still wouldn't recommend it for complete Nix newbs. Hence i hesitate saying that it's beginner friendly here in the description.
