#### Arch Linux
There is an [AUR package for neovide](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/neovide-git/).
##### With Paru (or your preferred AUR helper)

```
##### Without helper
Stable releases are [packaged in the community repository](https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/neovide).

To install a non-default branch:
To run a development version you can build from [the VCS package in the AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/neovide-git).
This can be built and installed using an AUR helper or [by hand in the usual way](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_and_upgrading_packages).
To build from a non-default branch you can edit the PKGBUILD and add `#branch-name` to the end of the source URL.
```sh
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/neovide-git.git
cd neovide-git
nvim PKGBUILD
:%s/l}/l}#branch=branch-name-here/
:wq
makepkg -si
```
##### With non-default branch
```sh
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/neovide-git.git
cd neovide-git
REGEX=$(printf 's/{url}/&\#branch=%s/g' '<YOUR-BRANCH-HERE>')
sed "$REGEX" PKGBUILD
makepkg -si
```
#### With Snap
Neovide is also available in the Snap Store. You can install it
