Todo Comments.nvim
todo-comments.nvim is a Neovim plugin and codebase task navigator that highlights and manages task keywords within code comments. It functions as a Lua-based highlighter and workflow extension that aggregates pending work and notes from source code into a searchable project list.
The plugin provides visual tracking of task comments using custom syntax highlighting and allows for jumping between these markers within a file. It enables project-wide task management by searching for tagged comments across multiple files to organize a development roadmap.
