A Neovim plugin that manages installation and updating of tree-sitter parsers and provides a collection of queries enabling tree-sitter features like syntax highlighting and code navigation. It also serves as a staging ground for tree-sitter-based features being considered for upstreaming into Neovim.
Use cases
- install tree-sitter parsers in neovim
- enable better syntax highlighting in neovim
- keep language parsers updated automatically
- get treesitter queries for many programming languages
- improve code folding and indentation in neovim
- set up tree-sitter for rust javascript and other languages
When to choose
- you use Neovim 0.12+ and want tree-sitter-powered highlighting and navigation
- you want a single tool to install, update, and remove parsers across many languages
- you want to try tree-sitter features before they land in Neovim core
When to avoid
- you run an older Neovim version and cannot use the new incompatible rewrite
- you use another editor like VS Code that has built-in tree-sitter support
- you cannot install a C compiler or tree-sitter-cli on your system
