## What it is
A Neovim plugin that emulates the Cursor AI IDE experience inside the editor. It provides AI-driven code suggestions, chat-based code assistance, and one-click application of AI-recommended changes to source files.

## Use cases
- get AI code suggestions inside Neovim
- chat with an LLM about the current file
- apply AI-recommended code edits with one command
- customize AI behavior per project with an avante.md file
- use Cursor-style AI workflows without leaving the terminal

## When to choose
- you live in Neovim and want Cursor-like AI assistance
- you want AI edits applied directly to your buffers
- you prefer terminal-based editing with LLM integration

## When to avoid
- you use an editor other than Neovim
- you want a full standalone AI IDE with a GUI
- you need offline code assistance without an LLM API
