dotfiles VS indentLine

I have never used lsp-zero nor mason. I crafted my own LSP setup from back in the Neovim 0.5 days, see config here if interested.

Very simple, as noted here

My Diagnostic config: https://github.com/bluz71/dotfiles/blob/master/nvim/after/plugin/diagnostic.lua

My Neovim dotfiles.

init.lua and nvim directory

Most of mine is in Vimscript except for any modern Neovim plugin, I configure all of those in Lua. You can so I sprinkle Lua lightly within my configuration.

[Tip 3] Do not use the vim-rails plugin, it really slows down startup A LOT. I have switched over to Tim Pope's other project navigation plugin projectionist which can be configured to provide most of the functionality of vim-rails (but not all). For those interested here are my projectionist mappings. The stuff I miss out on, such as opening view files under the cursor just via :Eview, I can live without.

You can look around my dotfiles to get a feel for this hybrid Neovim / Vim compatibility mode.

This is what it looks like for me and this is my indent-blankline configuration, the most important of which is this:

Before my emacs days, I used nvim with this package called indentLine. Basically it displays (maybe semi-transparent?) vertical lines for same indentation levels . It's visually helpful when I'm in python code.

If I understood your question and you don't mind adding a plugin, Yggdroot/indentLine might be what you're looking for.

I saw this on github: https://github.com/Yggdroot/indentLine but it's last bug fix was 2 years ago with 71 open issues.

(For example, in vim, I use https://github.com/Yggdroot/indentLine, but in nvim, I use https://github.com/lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim.)

If you use tabs for indentation check out :h 'list' and :h 'listchars'. If you use spaces there is the indentline plugin (or indent-blankline if you're using neovim).

If your file is saved as a particular language that supports indentation, it will automatically indent lines for you but it cannot be reliable. So, we need to IndentLine, and others as well.
