I've used neovim for a couple years now, but had trouble using it professionally for devops work because package managers and such tend to break in certain environments i.e. docker containers; remote servers. Rather than go with the graybeard option of using plain vim in unusual environments, I experimented with not using any package managers and just directly controlling the environment.
This worked surprisingly well, so I reworked my dotfiles into a shareable format - which is freak.nvim
Hope others who have similar problems or just prefer this type of control freakery find it useful. :)
