fzf.vim integrates the blazing-fast fzf fuzzy finder into Vim and Neovim, turning common navigation tasks into instant searches. With commands like :Files, :Buffers, :Rg, and :Commands, you can jump to files, lines, symbols, commits, or help tags using incremental fuzzy matching. It embraces Vim’s philosophy by composing with registers, marks, quickfix, and mappings, letting you build powerful flows from small pieces. Previews show file contents, diffs, or documentation alongside candidates, and can be customized with tools like ripgrep and bat. The plugin works in terminals and GUIs, optionally using floating windows and popup layouts to keep context visible. Its speed and adaptability make it a staple for users who live in Vim and need to traverse large codebases without losing rhythm.
