ui.nvim

The frame around the window: statusline, tabline, theme assembly — standing on Neovim's own APIs rather than a distribution's. Started from roughly 4,500 lines of working statusline, tabline and theme code extracted out of a NvChad-based config, and replaced the coupling to NvChad and base46 symbol by symbol from there.

what is shown when
  1. :UI zen - the buffer alone, centred, everything else dimmed
  2. :UI color - a colour picker over the hex under the cursor
  3. ui.notify - vim.notify as level-coloured toasts

Alpha. All statusline, tabline and theme code stands on Neovim's own APIs — neither NvChad nor base46 are required any more, including by the reference host this plugin was extracted from. See the migration record for how it got there, and pin a commit if you depend on it.
