A Neovim plugin that ports the Emacs Hydra concept, letting users create custom keybinding submodes and menus where repeated commands run without re-pressing a prefix. It supports configurable hints, colors, and exit behavior for grouped keybindings.

Use cases

• repeat window resizing without re-pressing prefix keys
• create custom keybinding menus in Neovim
• scroll buffer horizontally with repeated single keys
• build a git command submode in Neovim
• show a hint panel for grouped keybindings
• port Emacs Hydra workflows to Neovim

When to choose

• you use Neovim and want Emacs-style Hydra submodes
• you frequently repeat prefixed commands like window resizing or scrolling
• you want discoverable menus for grouped keybindings

When to avoid

• you don't use Neovim
• you prefer vanilla Vim keybindings with count prefixes
• you need a plugin with an explicit license or active maintenance guarantees
