grug-far.nvim is a find-and-replace plugin for Neovim that leverages ripgrep or ast-grep for project-wide search and replacement. It provides a live, syntax-highlighted results buffer with inline editing, history, folding, and multiline/visual-range search support.

Use cases

• find and replace text across a project in neovim
• refactor code with ripgrep-powered search and replace
• run ast-grep structural search and replace in neovim
• edit search results inline and sync changes to files
• search and replace within a visual selection range
• keep a searchable history of past find-and-replace operations

When to choose

• you use Neovim and want a live, interactive project-wide find-and-replace UI
• you want the full power of ripgrep or ast-grep queries with safety warnings on risky flags
• you need multiline, structural, or lua-interpreted replacements

When to avoid

• you don't use Neovim
• you only need simple single-file find-and-replace built into the editor
• you need a GUI-based global search tool
