## What it is
A nvim-cmp completion source that bridges Neovim's built-in LSP client with the nvim-cmp autocomplete engine. It advertises extended completion capabilities to language servers so they return richer completion candidates.

## Use cases
- get LSP completion suggestions in Neovim via nvim-cmp
- replace Neovim's built-in omnifunc with richer LSP completions
- advertise nvim-cmp capabilities to language servers like clangd
- customize keyword patterns for specific language servers

## When to choose
- you use nvim-cmp and want LSP-driven autocompletion in Neovim
- you need language servers to return snippet and richer completion items

## When to avoid
- you don't use nvim-cmp or prefer Neovim's built-in omnifunc
- you use a different editor than Neovim
