  • fzf is so powerful when you use it well ! code/files/tags/git history

    Nope it's a custom mix with fzf and git, you can have more details from this commit in my dotfiles : https://github.com/Sanix-Darker/dotfiles/commit/1c606b22e6ab2dd62638ff840e042eb394dae2b2
  • nvim + fzf-preview is all you need to be happy
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 19 Oct 2022
    I have installed Ag + fzf installed in my stack and i think it's the best combo i ever had to do, it's fast, not releated to nvim processes, since a long time ! On nvim, i have : fzf-preview, vim-floaterm and vista.vim and i can basically do any kind of search on anything: - Search in lines for specifics or all buffers - Search for all files from a directory - Search globally (files, lines, ...) - Search for new changes (git changes or local-history changes) - Search for tags (functions names/ class names / variables) Personally, i don't like Treesitter nvim (nvim-treesitter) because it's embed as a plugin on nvim, so if nvim is running slowly, these feature are going to be impacted ! At the other-hand, fzf/ag are running independently from nvim as a bash command, and am just dealing with their stdout 🙂 Of course, this is my choice and it may be like by you !

  • Code action previews with `fzf-lua`!
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 10 Dec 2023
    Shoutout to fzf-lua for adding support for code action previews! I just updated my config and I'm quite happy with the result :)
  • Simplest way to incorporate fzf
    1 project | /r/neovim | 22 Jul 2023
    Glance an eye to fzf-lua, the quickstart section let you try the plugin in seconds.
  • Your favourite Neovim plugins?
    42 projects | /r/neovim | 21 Jun 2023
    fzf-lua - fast and minimal Telescope alternative.
  • fzfx.vim: E(x)tended fzf commands missing in fzf.vim
    4 projects | /r/vim | 19 Jun 2023
    Thanks to fzf.vim and fzf-lua, everything I learned and copied is from them.
  • How to manage quickfix list history
    5 projects | /r/neovim | 17 Jun 2023
    With fzf-lua every selection sent to qf (or loclist) generated a new list with the context as name (I.e files: lua), you can then browse the quick fix history with :FzfLua quickfix_stack.

  • Fzf-lua extension for todo-comments.nvim?
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 10 May 2023
    Hello everyone, I am a happy user of both fzf-lua and todo-comments.nvim. I will never thank the authors of these two very useful plugins enough. Now, given that there are a lot of people out there using both and that todo-comments only has a Trouble and a Telescope extension for navigating through the comments, I am wondering if someone ever came up with an fzf-lua extension for todo-comments.nvim. I haven't found it by a quick online search, but maybe someone is keeping it very well hidden in their dotfiles.
  • Update: Advanced Git Search for fzf-lua
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 10 May 2023
    I recently made a Telescope extension to search your git history by content, commit message and author (reddit post). I extended the plugin so you can use it with fzf-lua 🚀
  • Telescope fuzzy-finding not working as expected
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 30 Apr 2023
    I use https://github.com/ibhagwan/fzf-lua and in my opinion its better than Telescope. It was always faster but maybe Telescope has cought up now, not sure. But it also has stuff like filtering results by simple regex like I do in pic here.
  • I'm stumped
    8 projects | /r/neovim | 2 Apr 2023
    Like what? I haven't run into any issues. The main one is that some plugins only support Linux, mainly fzf-lua (and I've contributed like 1-line patches to other plugins to add support for windows.)
