  • [ ] Documentation/spec update
  • [ ] Other containers.dev site update (UX, layout, etc)

Description

Added possibility to install NeoVim from prebuilt binaries directly. Currently, available devcontainer NeoVim features are installed either via :

  • apt (2 collections)
  • homebrew (1 collection)
  • built from source (1 collection)

My implementation offers a clear advantage in that it is extremely lightweight, requires no lengthy installation (just download, unzip, and move a file), offers the latest neovim, and works on almost any linux.
