No that is right, emacs has two main contenders for "fuzzy search" - ido-mode and helm. They act as completion engines for all kinds of search; file, word, buffer, commands etc.

Helm acts similar to Ctrl+P, ido is like an incremental search so finding a file named BasketViewController.swift in path ~/Code/MyApp/;

In helm would be 'bvc', whereas in ido it would be c -> code (hit enter), m -> MyApp (tab across if its not first result, enter) Bas -> BasketViewController.swift
