YouCompleteMe VS vim-gitgutter

For vim specifically, I've been using coc.nvim, which works pretty well for my needs, and I know its quite popular. Another fairly popular one is YouCompleteMe, which I had taken a look at for some other languages; but ended up just using coc as I can't justify using YCM once a year (if that) -- too much "headache" for not a lot of use, you know?

YouCompleteMe. A pretty good autocompletion plugin, though vim does have its own, somewhat useful built-in auto completion that requires more keystrokes

There are plugins to do semantic highlighting. I don't use any of them because I'm satisfied with Vim's native syntax highlighting and with tree-sitter (and also because I don't use LSPs), but searching for "Vim semantic highlighting" on DuckDuckGo yields this: https://github.com/ycm-core/YouCompleteMe. The highlighting used in its demo is too baroque for my taste, but looking at your VSCode screenshot, it looks like it would be right up your alley.

The plugin that is requiring Python3 is You Complete Me here is the link!! The Vundle link I was looking at is also in the body of my post.

I use vim for C++ coding, however it is a bit difficult to set up to make it productive. I use YouCompleteMe [0] for autocompletion, Vimspector [1] with the C++ plugin for debugging, ALE [2] for linting, along with a few other general plugins (such as NerdTREE for file view).

I didn't make a complete list of requirements :) This issue makes YCM uninteresting to me, so I've not dug too deep into it.

my favorite is YouCompleteMe.

I personally use nerdtree. Add nerdtree-git-plugin too, that's nice when looking at your project (for files, use vim-gitgutter).

vim-gitgutter

That said, Neovim can still run most Vimscript plugins just fine, so you can still use https://github.com/chrisbra/changesPlugin (and https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter and https://github.com/mhinz/vim-signify/, which are mentioned in the README) if you want.

vim-signify or git gutter can do this for files managed by git.

https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter Since your already on neovim these plugins are excellent for git integration within vim! You may just prefer lazygit but having a tight integration in editor is definitely really nice for my personal workflow. Your approach is more unix-y where you have a tool for each job though!

Git gutter Git status signs in the gutter (leftmost column)

vim-gitgutter supports staging/undoing hunks and a hunk text object. I find it convenient for this exact workflow.
