fzf-lua is a Neovim plugin that provides a Lua-based, improved replacement for fzf.vim, integrating the fzf fuzzy finder with Neovim. It offers pickers for files, buffers, grep, help tags, git commands, and more, with extensive customization and optional native previewing.

Use cases

• fuzzy find files in neovim
• live grep across a project from the editor
• switch between open buffers quickly
• search neovim help tags
• browse git files and status with previews
• replace telescope or fzf.vim with a faster lua picker

When to choose

• you use Neovim 0.9+ and want a fast, highly configurable fzf integration
• you want a lighter alternative to Telescope with native fzf performance
• you need rich pickers (files, grep, git, LSP, DAP) with preview support

When to avoid

• you don't use Neovim or don't want an external fzf binary dependency
• you prefer an all-Lua picker without external CLI tools
• you need a GUI or non-editor fuzzy finder
