I use fzf-lua for live-grep and git status and pretty much Telescope for everything else. Initially I also switched entirely to fzf-lua but then started noticing a slight delay when triggering the commands as compared to telescope specially those with previews. Is there any particular reason I you switched to fzf-lua entirely?
@@benfrainuk Yes, for very large projects fzf is just great. It by mistake I run telescope find_file on my entire home folder it will get stuck if I start typing a query, fzf (and so fzf-lua) on the other hand handles that like a champ. So I still use both and have Fzflua files mapped to a key binding. The reason I use Telescope is because I feel it a bit snappier when I first open the popup window as compared to fzflua (but both are great).
@@benfrainuk no its not kitty, I'm using kitty too but your scrolling and moving around in neovim is on another level 🥲 i saw this kind of performance on zed editor but never on neovim
@@benfrainuk performance. I work on repos with many files, and very large. Filtering with telescope, even using native extensions and stuff is ridiculously slow, to the point of freezing the editor. Also, It has too many configuration options making it very confusing
Thank you really enjoyed this video!
Hi! Thank you for your video!
How to get the spell check feature?
You can grab my config from github.com/benfrain/neovim
I'm here for that ...

No, Just curiosity. Wanted to see if it was any quicker on a larger repo. Wasn’t measurable but kept it as I quite like the aesthetic 👍

Do you have your dotfiles in their entirety posted anywhere?
No, Just my Neovim config files linked in the description.
what's the plugin to get the cursive font for the function keywords and comments?
I’m using Kanagawa theme and Kitty Terminal with Victor Mono font. 👍
why your cursor is so fast and smooth?
I’m using Kitty terminal. Always found that to be very fast. Maybe it is that? 🤷♂️

it's fast because kitty supports GPU
@@MohammadSalehzadeh-w8r I have a very fast key repeat setting so could that be a factor?
@@benfrainuk I figured that out and made mine 2 times faster and now my cursor is fast. thanks for helping 🙏🙏
Telescope is great, but it sucks compared to fzf-lua
What is it you find better about FZF-LUA?
