Did you check docs and existing issues?

  • I have read all the LazyVim docs
  • I have updated the plugin to the latest version before submitting this issue
  • I have searched the existing issues of LazyVim
  • I have searched the existing issues of plugins related to this issue

Neovim version (nvim -v)

v0.11.1

Operating system/version

Windows 11

Describe the bug

re: folke/snacks.nvim#1563
The editor.snacks_picker extra (which is included by default) does not work out of the box on Windows 11, for that you need to install a compatible find or fd (such as winget install sharkdp.fd).

Without it, it will just display an error:

Command failed:
- cmd: `find . -type f -not -path */.git/* -not -path */.*`

It would be great if https://www.lazyvim.org/#%EF%B8%8F-requirements could specify that fd is a necessary dependency (currently it is only listed as "optional" under fzf-lua)

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Install the LazyVim Starter on Windows 11
  2. Open the picker (example: <space><space>)
  3. Observe error and no files listed

Expected Behavior

Either:

Repro

-- default init.lua from LazyVim starter
-- bootstrap lazy.nvim, LazyVim and your plugins
require("config.lazy")
