## What it is
A Neovim plugin written in Lua that displays LSP diagnostic messages inline as customizable virtual text with configurable styles, icons, and overflow handling. It replaces Neovim's built-in virtual text diagnostics with a richer inline presentation supporting multiline and severity-based display.

## Use cases
- show lsp error messages inline in neovim
- display diagnostics without floating windows
- customize diagnostic icons and styles in nvim
- show errors on all lines but warnings only on cursor line
- handle long diagnostic messages that overflow the window
- replace neovim virtual_text diagnostics with a nicer display

## When to choose
- you use Neovim 0.10+ with LSP and want inline diagnostics
- you want configurable presets, icons, and multiline diagnostic rendering
- you find floating-window diagnostics disruptive to your workflow

## When to avoid
- you are not using Neovim or are on Vim
- you prefer Neovim's built-in virtual_text or floating window diagnostics
- you need an editor-agnostic diagnostic solution
