YouCompleteMe VS vim-go

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 found a github issue that seems related, but following the steps to start dlv on my own does not work either. https://github.com/fatih/vim-go/issues/3543

There are a handful of really good go plugins that take care of this for you, such as https://github.com/ray-x/go.nvim or https://github.com/fatih/vim-go

With vim-go and snippets, neovim has almost the same functionality as GoLand

So does anyone know how to actually install it? The "instructions" (which I presume had to be dictated by their straight-jacketed author) from GitHub are, utterly useless, requiring the user to already have vim-go installed before beginning vim-go installation. You'll need vim-go to install vim-go, you see, because with a working vim-go installation can the user execute the special command to install vim-go's dependencies (because that's how software works ya know). And, if you have any trouble installing vim-go, it says, not to worry - further instructions have been provided along with your existing vim-go installation - just execute `:help go-install` (requires existing vim-go installation, of course) and from there, it's turtles all the way down! So as long as you have vim-go installed, installing vim-go is a breeze! Am I having an anheurysm right now? What the hell is this?

Hi, usually Vim works as expected: scroll mouse event move a buffer content for a few lines. But sometimes something broke and every scroll event move a whole screen, like I pressed PageUp or PageDown. I thought that this is a defect with some plugin - because I can reproduce it only with vim-go and mouse=a - without other plugins and configs. I tried multiple terminals, and even boot Ubuntu live USB - still reproducible with my private company codebase, so I cannot share the code. This is my ticket for that plugin - the author said that this is might be something with my system configuration. Please help.

At first Ihad struggled with some common "IDE" tasks. But then I discovered vim-go and realized that it could do pretty much everything that I need and even more.
