A Neovim plugin that overrides the default vim.ui.select and vim.ui.input interfaces with nicer floating-window implementations, optionally backed by pickers like telescope or fzf. It is now archived; the author recommends snacks.nvim instead.

Use cases

  • improve vim.ui.select and vim.ui.input prompts in neovim
  • replace the default neovim input prompt with a floating window
  • route vim.ui.select through telescope or fzf
  • make LSP rename prompts nicer in neovim
  • customize neovim core UI hooks without changing the API

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new Neovim configuration - use snacks.nvim instead
  • you need actively maintained features or bug fixes
  • you prefer a picker that natively handles vim.ui hooks without a shim
