## What it is
A Neovim plugin that displays a tree-like sidebar view of code symbols (classes, functions, variables, etc.) using the Language Server Protocol. It works with any language that has an LSP server configured in Neovim.

## Use cases
- show an outline of symbols in the current file in neovim
- navigate between functions and classes via a sidebar tree
- jump to symbol definitions from a tree view
- rename symbols from an outline panel
- fold and unfold code structure in neovim

## When to choose
- you use Neovim 0.7+ with a configured LSP client and want a symbol outline sidebar
- you want language-agnostic code navigation via LSP

## When to avoid
- the plugin is archived and no longer maintained
- you need active support or bug fixes
- you use a Neovim distribution with a built-in or maintained alternative like aerial.nvim or outline.nvim
