Vista.vim is a Vim/NeoVim plugin that displays and searches LSP symbols and ctags tags in a sidebar, acting as a modern replacement for tagbar. It supports multiple LSP clients and fuzzy finders like fzf and skim for symbol navigation.

Use cases

• view code symbols in a vim sidebar
• replace tagbar with LSP support
• fuzzy find functions and classes in current file
• show nearest method in statusline
• generate markdown table of contents
• jump to symbol definitions from an outline

When to choose

• you use Vim or NeoVim and want a tagbar alternative with LSP symbol support
• you need async symbol viewing and fuzzy symbol finding
• you want statusline integration showing the nearest function

When to avoid

• you use an IDE with built-in outline views
• you rely on Exuberant Ctags instead of universal-ctags
• you need a perfectly rendered ctags tree view (known flaw #320)
