Ivy was explicitly designed with the minibuffer in mind, just like
built-in minibuffer completion. That said, it's possible to customise
where completions appear. For example, in-buffer completion is
displayed in an overlay at point, not in the minibuffer.
See e.g. the following for more information:

- ivy-display-functions-alist
- ivy-display-functions-props
