## What it is
nvim-cmp is a completion engine plugin for Neovim written in Lua. It aggregates completion items from configurable external sources such as LSP servers, buffers, paths, and snippet engines into a unified, highly customizable popup completion experience.

## Use cases
- autocomplete code in neovim
- show LSP completion suggestions while typing
- integrate snippet expansion with completion menu
- complete words from open buffers
- customize completion key mappings in neovim

## When to avoid
- you use an editor other than Neovim
- you prefer a minimal setup without plugin-based completion
- you need an IDE with completion out of the box
