Building from Source

Neovim for macOS uses a forked version of Neovim which adds:

• Native clipboard support (neovim/neovim#12452).
• A mousescroll option (neovim/neovim#12355).
• Scrolling fixes (neovim/neovim#12356).

Hopefully these changes will eventually be accepted into Neovim. Until then, we'll need to build our modified version from source, so before we begin, ensure you have the build prerequisites. After that, building is as simple as:

git clone https://github.com/JaySandhu/neovim-mac.git
cd neovim-mac
./build_nvim.sh
xcodebuild -configuration Release

If everything went as planned, you'll find Neovim.app in build/release.
