@HannesGitH thank you for working on that, but I really think this is not a priority right now (I haven't really seen people asking for nix build support) so I believe we should just hold off until there's more demand.. I would really appreciate it if you can work on some of the other issues meanwhile.. thanks again

Sure thing, no worries. Wanted to make it work anyway and now that it does I can instead add it downstream to nixpkgs, you don't have to see it again ;)
But just in case first party support should be planned anyway (maybe way in the future) this is how it could be done :P

For any nix user stumbling upon this, I'll probably open a pr to nixpkgs soon, in the meantime you can nix run GitHub:hannesgith/neohtop?ref=nixify

edit: here it is: NixOS/nixpkgs#356826
