TJ has a walkthrough of installing NeoVim and his Kickstart.nvim package for people new to NeoVim. He explains what is going on so you can then further customize your NeoVim setup.

I used NeoVim with Kickstart.nvim to get my NeoVim setup initialized. It's great.

Vim fork that is a fork of vi.

In general what every one of them has in common is the modal editing model, where you have diferent modes to edit files with keyboard only.

Neovim is just a fork of vim that adds in more features on top of features vim added to the original vi.
