## What it is
lualine.nvim is a fast, highly configurable statusline plugin for Neovim written in pure Lua. It loads only the components you configure, keeping startup time minimal, and supports themes and custom layouts.

## Use cases
- customize my neovim statusline
- fast statusline plugin for nvim
- show git branch and diagnostics in vim status bar
- theme my neovim bottom bar
- replace airline with a lua statusline

## When to choose
- you use Neovim >= 0.7 and want a fast, pure-Lua statusline
- you want per-component loading to minimize startup time
- you want extensive theming and custom component support

## When to avoid
- you use Vim or Neovim older than 0.7 without compatibility tags
- you prefer a prebuilt statusline with zero configuration

- function: ui-components, theme, developer-tools
