code_runner.nvim VS lsp-zero.nvim

I used to use this plugin: https://github.com/CRAG666/code_runner.nvim ... up until I realized that I could just run my code from the terminal without the need of a plugin for that

I would recommend the Neovim from Scratch series on Youtube with the addition of the code_runner.nvim plugin. It's a good config that will teach you a lot about configuring Neovim. code_runner.nvim is a nice addition, especially for a university student. Good luck!

You should be able to use code_runner.nvim. I only say "should" because I've never tried to install it with vim-plug. Obviously, you shouldn't have any issue getting it ip and running. It has some default configurations for languages which will suit your use case just fine. You can specify how you want the code_runner window to open.

You can check this plugin out. I use it an like it a lot. Some people are currently having problems with it, but I think it's mainly people new to Neovim entirely. I've responded to a couple of issues to see if I could help out. Happy to help with setup if needed.

This plugin is the way to go. Is very simple and yet very powerful. Dies exactly what you want.

Hi!! You can try using https://github.com/CRAG666/code_runner.nvim . It is fairly easy to setup.

I've just got https://github.com/CRAG666/code_runner.nvim working but the file needs to be saved before I can run to see changes, & I cant save while the plugin is open in the term. Does anyone know of a solution?

I have set up astrovim & I am trying to add this plugin https://github.com/CRAG666/code_runner.nvim

How about this?

I'm using lsp-zero and i followed this tutorial https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/blob/v2.x/doc/md/guides/setup-with-nvim-jdtls.md and i have essentially just copy pasted the code from there into ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugin/jdtls.lua

Personally, i think nvim-lint is the best alternative currently, specially so because it has no dependencies on external binaries. This guide assumes you already have your LSP set up with nvim-lspconfig (or an alternative like lsp-zero). You should also have an way to install the linters you are gonna need, i highly recommend Mason with mason-lspconfig.

For those new to neovim, the documentation in lsp-zero has a tutorial that shows a configuration from scratch. It shows how to get a plugin a manager, a colorscheme, and setup lsp-zero.

Try https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim, a great introduction and it is pretty usable without any further config

For neovim, you can still use the same extensions; however there's also a built-in LSP client. The downside of using the built-in is you'll need to have more extensions installed/configured to get all the features out of the box...BUT projects do exist to help simplify that, like lsp-zero.

lap-zero.nvim - default config for nvim-lspconfig, mason.nvim, nvim-cmp.

In version v2.x the keybindings you set on the "global" on_attach of lsp-zero should work without any extra config. v2.x also has a tutorial on how to work with nvim-jdtls: setup with nvim-jdtls

Creator of lsp-zero suggested a complete solution to use ray-x/lsp_signature in this issue: https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/issues/69.
