## What it is
A Neovim plugin written in Lua that highlights, lists, and searches TODO-style comments (TODO, HACK, BUG, FIX, etc.) in your codebase. It integrates with quickfix, Telescope, FzfLua, and Trouble for navigating todo items.

## Use cases
- highlight todo comments in neovim
- search for TODO and BUG comments in my project
- list all FIXME notes in a quickfix list
- find todo comments with telescope
- customize todo keyword highlighting colors
- jump to todo comments in my code

## When to choose
- you use Neovim >= 0.8.0 and want todo comments visually highlighted
- you want to search and navigate todo comments via Telescope, FzfLua, quickfix, or Trouble
- you need configurable keywords, colors, and signs for todo annotations

## When to avoid
- you don't use Neovim
- you want todo tracking outside the editor or with team collaboration features
- you need an IDE with built-in task/comment tooling

- maturity: active
- function: search-engine, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, text-editors
