cmp-under-comparator
A Neovim nvim-cmp comparator that sorts completion items starting with underscores to the end of suggestions.
What is cmp-under-comparator?
cmp-under-comparator is a Lua plugin for Neovim's nvim-cmp autocompletion engine. It modifies the sorting of completion suggestions to push items that start with underscores (like `_private` or `__magic__`) to the bottom of the list. This solves the problem of internal or 'private' language constructs cluttering the top of completion menus during coding.
Neovim users who utilize nvim-cmp for code completion, particularly developers working in Python or other languages where underscore-prefixed identifiers are common.
It offers a simple, configurable solution to a specific UX pain point in code completion, making suggestions more relevant by deprioritizing typically less-used underscored items without modifying core editor behavior.
