snap VS LuaSnip

https://github.com/camspiers/snap is written in fennel which compiles to lua.

Fuzzy finders (telescope, or snap for the hipsters)

I have gone through many plugins for finding files and live grep. Last time I switched from https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim to https://github.com/camspiers/snap. I liked, that is snap is perceivably faster. My main grudge against snap is that I can't manage to use lsp as a source producer. So I am looking for a new plugin.

It's been a long road to get here, and required refactoring, like, 95% of the original code, but I'm proud to announce that I've just release Dash.nvim v0.8.0, now supporting Telescope, fzf-lua, and Snap!

Does it support bat previews instead of native? All I could find was this comment in a closed PR.

Lua plugins. If you don't want to write lua, that's fine, but that's something plugin authors may wish to do... and they do! They can write more complex and performant plugins more easily. (e.g. snap with user-customizable async producer/consumer API, telescope.nvim, lightspeed.nvim, LSP plugins, ...)

I recommend this: https://github.com/camspiers/snap

If you're using Neovim, check out LuaSnip: https://github.com/L3MON4D3/LuaSnip

I’ve been using LuaSnip and never put much thought into it. And this was mainly because of because it seemed like the default and had good LSP integration. The one downside is that creating custom snippets is not that ergonomic, but I don’t mind it if it’s the price to pay for speed.

You can use LuaSnip and load snippets from VSCode. The documentation is pretty complete, but here is my config in case you want another reference.

I am trying to add snippets for python, i have LuaSnip and friendly-snippets installed, but for some reason it does not load the snippets. This is how i load the plugins:

There was a similar issue in LuaSnip repo. The culprit was a keymap in the config. Do you happen to have a similar keymap somewhere in your config?

I have decided to extract my Haskell snippets for LuaSnip into a plugin: haskell-snippets.nvim.

Not exactly what you're talking about but you could look into LuaSnip?

There are a few more resources for new users as well on the official repo, and you can find the implementation in Examples/snippets.lua

You mean snippets? If yes, you can try Luasnip and friendly-snippets with nvim-cmp and here's the setup guide. Hope it helps

I had the same issue recently. It was the case when I inserted a snippet but didn't fill out all the placeholders right away. This helped me. This is an autocommand that unlinks the unfinished snippet when you change the mode.
