# Using the telescope extension

- Lets look at a scala project and add a dependency to it
- Lets take a look at the same dependency in a web browser
- To summarize, once you have searched for your package and selected one:
  - press enter to copy it to clipboard, then paste it into your build file or where ever you want
  - press <C-s> to open the scaladex page in your browser

# Using as a lua library to query scaladex

## Two methods
