bruno.nvim

Features:

• Execute Bruno requests - Run .bru files directly from Neovim
• Smart fallback - Uses last opened .bru file when current buffer isn't a Bruno file
• Environment switching - Select Bruno environments via a picker (telescope, fzf-lua, or snacks)
• Formatted output - Clean response display with request details and JSON formatting
• Output toggle - Switch between formatted and raw JSON output
• Content search - Search Bruno files by their contents using your chosen picker
• Persistent sidebar - Reuses output buffer to avoid window clutter
