Can you please confirm the project status ?
As you can probably tell from the last code-related commits being committed in December of last year, the project is mostly inactive. There a few reasons for this, one of which is simply that I haven't had much motivation for programming (or, too often, even life in general). Been sort of burnt out in more ways than one such that I haven't put much effort into maintaining and improving this project, unfortunately.
Aside from that burnout/similar though, the other more relevant reason I haven't done much with this project lately is that, while not a terrible neovim frontend, uivonim isn't really what I want in an editor/neovim GUI. Ultimately, I've been thinking I would like to archive/end this project in favor of something better. The issue is, that "something better" I haven't even created an MVP of yet, because of burnout/similar and also just frustration with my lack of knowledge.
The idea is still there though, and if executed well, I think I could strike a nice balance between eyecandy-GUI and the terminal. I just need to get something working before I can point people away from this project and towards that one.
So yeah. Veonim was promising and I was happy to continue it in spirit with this project, but it's hard to find motivation to work on it now because ultimately it just won't be what I want it to be because of electron and other reasons. I want to create something better and fast, in a low-level language and that utilizes the GPU directly, but I don't have anything yet and can't really say when or if I will. I have started a new project that could lead to that, but I can't promise anything.
I'm perfectly open to PRs and such though, perhaps even adding a maintainer and helping them navigate the codebase etc. or something if someone really wanted to work on this project. I just can't say I'll be doing a whole lot of work on it myself right now.

Oh and if you want a good GUI you can use now, I would suggest checking out Neovide, Goneovim, Gnvim, or similar. Those are all great alternatives to uivonim that are actually maintained and are also likely much more polished than this project is.

That's understandable. Thank you (and original author-whom I can't find anymore) for your work on this!
For me Uivonim/Veonim stood out from rest of the GUIs because it was not just a terminal replacement. I wanted something that removes the grid size and single font/size restrictions for the whole environment.
Good luck to you on your future endeavors! :)
