Leap.nvim is a Neovim plugin that provides fast, precise cursor motion via labeled jumps, letting users navigate anywhere on screen with a few keystrokes instead of the mouse. It is the successor to leap-style plugins like EasyMotion and lightspeed, written partly in Fennel.

Use cases

• jump to any visible word in neovim with few keystrokes
• replace mouse navigation in vim
• move cursor to a specific location quickly
• vim motion plugin for fast cursor movement
• navigate code without arrow keys
• label-based jumping in neovim

When to choose

• you use Neovim or Vim and want fast keyboard-only navigation
• you want a modern, actively maintained motion plugin
• you liked EasyMotion or lightspeed but want better ergonomics

When to avoid

• you don't use Vim-style editors
• you prefer a modal-free editing workflow
• you need an IDE with built-in mouse support
