Heirline.nvim is a no-nonsense Neovim Statusline/Winbar plugin designed around recursive inheritance to be exceptionally fast and versatile.
Heirline does not provide any default statusline, in fact, heirline can be thought of as a statusline API.
Why another statusline plugin?
Heirline picks up from other popular customizable statusline plugins like galaxyline and feline but removes all the hard-coded bloat and offers you thousands times more freedom. But freedom has a price: responsibility. I don't get to tell you what your statusline should do. You're in charge! With Heirline, you have a framework to easily implement whatever you can imagine, from simple to complex rules!
Heirline was deigned with these main features in mind:
Heirline is not for everyone, heirline is for people who like tailoring their own tools (and also like lua):
But don't you worry! Along with the inheritance comes THE FEATUREFUL COOKBOOK 📖 of a distant relative. Your dream 🪄 statusline is a copypaste away!
