💥 What's New in 3.0?

Major update for which-key.nvim! This release includes a complete rewrite and several new features. which-key was my very first plugin, so it was time for a fresh start. 🎉

• ✨ Full Rewrite: Improved performance and functionality.
• 👀 Visual & Operator Pending Mode Integration: Now uses ModeChanged, eliminating the need for operator remappings.
• 🔧 Simplified Mappings: Removed obscure secret mappings.
• 🔒 Safer Auto Triggers: Auto triggers are now never created for single keys apart from g and z. All other letters are unsafe.
• ⏱️ Delay: Set delay independently of timeoutlen.
• 🛠️ Layout:
  • Presets: classic, modern, and helix.
  • Enable/disable which-key for specific modes.
  • Configurable sorting with options like local, order, group, alphanum, mod, lower, icase, desc, and manual.
  • Expand groups with fewer keymaps.
  • Customizable string replacements for key and desc.
• 🎨 Icon Support:
  • Auto-detect icons for keymaps using lazy.nvim.
  • Custom icon rules and specifications for mapping levels.
• 🚫 Never Get in the Way: Avoids overlapping with the cursor.
• 🗂️ New Mapping Spec: New and better mappings spec, more in line with vim.keymap.set and how you define keymaps with lazy.nvim
• 🐛 New Bugs: Lots of new and exciting bugs to discover! 🐞
