Question 1

How does store.nvim compare to lazy.nvim for plugin discovery?

Accepted Answer

store.nvim excels as a dedicated discovery tool with a vast, searchable database and live previews, while lazy.nvim is a full package manager with lazy loading. Store.nvim can enhance browsing but doesn't replace lazy.nvim's management features.

Question 2

How to enable image previews in store.nvim?

Accepted Answer

Install the optional image.nvim dependency and configure it for markdown integrations, but note it only supports terminals like Kitty, Ghostty, and WezTerm, as mentioned in the README installation notes.

Question 3

Can store.nvim work offline?

Accepted Answer

No, it requires internet access for live README previews and daily database updates, making it unsuitable for offline use or environments with network restrictions.

Question 4

Why isn't my Neovim plugin showing up in store.nvim?

Accepted Answer

Plugins must have the 'neovim-plugin' tag on GitHub to be detected by the crawler; if missing, they won't appear until tagged and the database updates, as explained in the FAQ.

Question 5

Are the installation configs in store.nvim accurate?

Accepted Answer

They are automatically extracted and can sometimes be incorrect, especially for complex lazy.nvim configs, so users may need to manually verify or adjust them, as highlighted in the FAQ.

Question 6

What package managers does store.nvim support?

Accepted Answer

It supports all major Neovim package managers, including lazy.nvim, vim.pack, and others, providing universal installation commands without locking users into a specific system.
