help llm.nvim FAQ

What exactly does the llm.nvim plugin do?

llm.nvim is a plugin for Neovim that integrates large language models to provide AI-assisted coding directly in the text editor. It allows users to perform code completion, documentation generation, and code refactoring without leaving their Vim environment.

Which AI models can llm.nvim connect to?

The plugin is designed to work with popular API providers, including OpenAI's GPT series and local models. This allows developers to utilize either remote cloud servers or self-hosted models to power their in-editor AI tasks.

Is llm.nvim written entirely in Vimscript?

No, llm.nvim leverages Lua, which is the modern scripting language standard built into Neovim. Using Lua ensures that the plugin operates efficiently and asynchronously, preventing the editor from freezing during API requests.

Can llm.nvim be used to explain complex code snippets?

Yes, by highlighting a block of code and invoking the plugin's prompt, you can ask the integrated AI model to explain or document it. It will return the explanation or generated documentation directly in a split window or as inline text.
