A collection of quality-of-life plugins for Neovim, written in Lua, bundling features like a fuzzy picker, file explorer, dashboard, notifier, animations, and image viewing. Each 'snack' is an independently enableable module that enhances the Neovim editing experience.

Use cases

• fuzzy find files and buffers in neovim
• show a dashboard when opening neovim
• get prettier notifications in neovim
• browse files with a file explorer inside neovim
• view images inside the terminal in neovim
• delete buffers without breaking window layout
• open the current file on github from neovim

When to choose

• you use Neovim and want a single plugin providing many common QoL features
• you want a fast picker/fuzzy finder as a Telescope alternative
• you want declarative dashboards, indent guides, and notifications from one dependency

When to avoid

• you don't use Neovim
• you only need one small feature and prefer a minimal dedicated plugin
• you rely on tooling incompatible with its picker or UI modules
