Telescope.nvim is a highly extendable fuzzy finder plugin for Neovim, written entirely in Lua, that lets users find, filter, preview, and pick from lists such as files, buffers, and grep results. It is modular and extensible with community-built pickers, sorters, previewers, and extensions.

Use cases

  • fuzzy find files in neovim
  • live grep across a project from the editor
  • search and switch between open buffers
  • browse and preview files with a file picker
  • extend neovim with custom pickers and sorters
  • speed up fuzzy sorting with a native fzf sorter

When to choose

  • you use Neovim and want a fast, customizable fuzzy finder
  • you need modular pickers, sorters, and previewers in Lua
  • you want a large ecosystem of community extensions

When to avoid

  • you don't use Neovim
  • you need a standalone CLI fuzzy finder outside the editor
  • your Neovim version is older than the required minimum
