Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

GNU Debugger "GDB" Adds Support For Microsoft's Debug Adapter Protocol
GDB with gdb -i dap allows you to debug any language that GDB can debug from within Emacs' dap-mode: https://github.com/emacs-lsp/dap-mode

How to debug go tests with lsp and dap mode?

Emacs as IDE
Debugging (kind of an IDE feature) is a little harder. Out of the box, Emacs can at least debug emacs-lisp (with built-in features) and C (via gdb integration). Beyond that, take a look at dap-mode for other language options. Similarly, take a look at lsp-mode or eglot for code completion, more advanced linting, etc.

Eglot has landed on master: Emacs now has a built-in LSP client
At least for web development I believe eglot is strictly worse. It does not support running multiple servers (e.g. tsserver and eslint-ls) (https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/issues/976) which is supported by lsp-mode and neovim's built-in lsp client. Also, it does not have any equivalent to dap-mode which is lsp-mode only. Although worth noting dap-mode is currently useless for js (https://github.com/emacs-lsp/dap-mode/issues/369).

EGlot as LSP - Interface & DAP
Hi, as it seems EGlot will receive the blessing of inclusion into vanilla Emacs. That makes me wonder how I am supposed to use dap-mode at it swaps in lsp-mode as a dependency.

Debugging GameBoy Advance (GBA) programs/games in Emacs
We will use dap-mode with the dap-gdb-lldb option here. Under the hood, it uses the debug adapter from the Native Debug VSCode extension. Configuring it is described on the dap-mode webpages. After we have configured dap-mode, we could in theory reuse the launch.json configurations from the VSCode related articles above. That will require that you also use lsp-mode, as dap-launch depends on the lsp-workspace-root function and will not resolve when lsp-mode is not used. I don't use lsp-mode with C (company-clang and company-c-headers provide what I need), so the next logical solution would be to create a debug template ourselves:

John Carmack: Best Programming Setup and IDE – Lex Fridman Podcast Clips
Hmm it does seem like Emacs is growing support for the Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP), the LSP-alike convention that allows language developers to build language-specific debuggers that tie into the VSCode UI: https://github.com/emacs-lsp/dap-mode

Programming in Python
So, what do you need: - Language server for Python (lsp and lsp-ui) Use lsp-mode it's more reach with features at the moment https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/page/installation/ - Real-time program debugging (dap-mode) https://github.com/emacs-lsp/dap-mode

lsp-mode vs eglot
Seems like too much work and the issue has been closed and not reopened since 2018 sadly. It looks like it won't be happening any time soon. https://github.com/emacs-lsp/dap-mode/issues/2

I can't stand using VSCode so I wrote my own (it wasn't easy)
There are DAP extensions for both Vim (e.g. https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector) and NeoVim (https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap). I can't speak as to the experience in detail (I think I briefly played with nvim-dap a year or two ago), but I suspect that for most it will be good enough.

Certain Mapping only when another command was called earlier (lua)
I struggle a bit to put what i want into words but i still try my best.So i got some plugins likehttps://github.com/sindrets/diffview.nvimhttps://github.com/harrisoncramer/gitlab.nvimhttps://github.com/puremourning/vimspectorand so on (but those are the one which i need that "feature" the most).

How to configure vim like an IDE

I like Tabasco.
I do think VSCode is a great tool and I recommend it frequently to people, but I still want to set the record straight here. Yes, vim is obviously limited in the sense that as a CLI app it doesn't draw it's own PDF or HTML windows, that's fair. But it can remote control your favorite PDF viewer or browser for roughly the same functionality. I'm currently writing my thesis using vimtex and it's quite smooth. And all the other stuff you mention is implemented quite competently by various plugins like vim-fugitive, coc.nvim, vimspector and copilot.vim.

Vim or Emacs for C++ Coding?
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).

My office wants everyone to use vim as the only editor. Has this happened to anyone else?
For debugging normally I'd throw a breakpoint() and then have it launch pdb in a terminal from within nvim, but vimspector also exists if you'd rather.
What are some alternatives?
eglot - A client for Language Server Protocol servers
nvim-dap - Debug Adapter Protocol client implementation for Neovim
lsp-mode - Emacs client/library for the Language Server Protocol
nvim-gdb - Neovim thin wrapper for GDB, LLDB, PDB/PDB++ and BashDB

LunarVim - 🌙 LunarVim is an IDE layer for Neovim. Completely free and community driven.
