## What it is
A Neovim plugin that enhances the built-in quickfix window with better UI, preview, filtering, and fzf integration. It adds features like magic window toggling, treesitter-powered previews, sign-based item filtering, and search-and-replace workflows.

## Use cases
- make the neovim quickfix window nicer
- preview quickfix entries without leaving the edit window
- fuzzy filter quickfix results with fzf
- filter quickfix items by signs
- search and replace across files from the quickfix list
- toggle quickfix window smoothly

## When to choose
- you use Neovim's quickfix window regularly and want a better experience
- you want fuzzy searching and previews inside the quickfix window
- you want to refactor via quickfix with sustainable previews

## When to avoid
- you don't use Neovim or the quickfix window
- you prefer a minimal setup without plugin dependencies
- you need a quickfix replacement outside of Neovim
