Add NixVim Plugin

About

Streamlines the process of extending a NixVim configuration by adding Neovim plugins that lack native NixVim modules. This skill guides the entire lifecycle of plugin integration, from fetching repository details and calculating SHA256 hashes to organizing configurations within a structured directory and updating internal documentation. It ensures consistency across the codebase by automating the creation of Nix files, configuring keymaps, and integrating with UI elements like WhichKey, ultimately allowing for a highly customized and well-organized Neovim environment.

Key Features

• Standardized categorization and organizational workflow for plugin files within the project structure
• Automated generation of Nix plugin configuration files with boilerplate for extraPlugins and extraConfigLua
• Information retrieval from GitHub repositories to capture plugin purpose, features, and setup requirements
• 0 GitHub stars
• Support for advanced optimization techniques including lazy loading patterns
• Integrated documentation updates for recent plugins and WhichKey menu entries

Use Cases

• Maintaining a clean, modular Neovim configuration by following established directory structures and documentation standards
• Optimizing editor startup performance by implementing lazy-loading strategies for newly added custom plugins
• Adding a cutting-edge Neovim plugin found on GitHub that hasn't been officially packaged by NixVim yet
