elixir-ls VS Visual Studio Code

No. Not even close. But it's getting better.

There are currently two worth mentioning:

ElixirLSP: https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls

Elixir tools: https://www.elixir-tools.dev/

ElixirLSP is the older project, and has been around for a while. It does a lot, but has had sporadic issues over the years. Things like the debugger are a dog to get working, and the server itself will occasionally run into issues where it just doesn't want to work. It's always sort of focused on a subset of language server features, so don't expect much in the way of inline corrections. But it's got the essentials, formatting, basic linting, type hinting, on demand documentation, and primitive reference navigation

Elixir tools is a new up and comer, written by Mitchell Hanberg. It's aiming to be a more complete lsp, and has plugins in its "ecosystem" for most editors. Features have been arriving rapidly, starting with things like inline corrections and far more reliable linting, and recently growing autocomplete. One of the main selling points is the elixir-tools backend is a self contained binary, so it can mostly work independent of system Elixir/Erlang version, which was a frequent tripping point for ElixirLSP

Personally I use both at the same time, but plan to move to tools only when it's got all the features I need

I decided I can live without elixir-ls when couching in return for having a usable editor. When the plugin ecosystem and documentation matures I can see myself switching to using Lapce for my primary editor.

Hi! I've compiled gdb from master and installed it. When I run gdb -i dap, I get JSON-RPC, so it looks like it's working, but I'm lost as to where to go from here. Does your change enable me to use a tool like https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls with GDB now, right? How might I use them together? What would be required to then have GDB debugging over DAP from inside Emacs?

Elixir-ls provides Language Server Protocol support as well as VS Code Debug Protocol support which gives extra powers to VS Code, NeoVim, Emacs, and the like

https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls

BUT, with the news that in the next Emacs version eglot (lsp client) is going to be in the core, I decide to modify alchemist in a different way, enhancing other capabilities and letting eglot do what he best does (which is the functionality of elixir-ls).

I think it's here: https://github.com/elixir-lsp/elixir-ls

elixir-ls powers the VSCode experience, and while it works decently, I've never really clicked with VSCode. In general, for other languages, I tend to use Jetbrain's Products. I would love to give fleet a whirl, and I know in the background it can use the Language Server Protocol to support many of the languages it currently ships with.

Now it doesn't mean that immediately reading this starter guide, you will have everything under the sun set up with Nix Flakes for your development need. But at least, you won't have to worry about setting up asdf, your weird hacks you need for your machine and the other tiny little things to get elixir started with elixir-ls.

I have a minimal lspconfig with coq_nvim with elixirls and tsserver. The problem is that whenever i code on elixir everything becomes slow.

Well I know one extension that runs your code, elixir-ls. I believe it scans your code and runs dialyzer, a static analysis tool, which runs your code and generates types based on it.

A code editor (VS Code is my go-to IDE), but feel free to use any code editor you're comfortable with.

First, grab your favorite command-line tool, Terminal or Warp, and a code editor, preferably VS Code and let’s begin.

C# is very good as a language, have developed in it for 5+ years. The problem is the gap between what MSFT promises to management and actually delivers to developers. You really really need to fully read the fine print, think of the omissions in documentation and implement a proof-of-concept that almost implements the full solution to find out the hidden gotchas.

For example, even probably their best product VS Code only got reasonable multiple screens support last year: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecommen...

And then, on the other end of the spectrum, you have Teams.

Hey fellow amazing developers, we got you Essential VS Code Extensions for 2024 (these are especially important for web developers) recommended by our developers at evotik, we wont talk about ESlint nor Prettier which all of you already know.

Visual Studio Code (VS Code): Developed by Microsoft, VS Code is a lightweight yet powerful IDE with extensive support for Python development through extensions. It offers features like IntelliSense, debugging, and built-in Git integration.

In VSCode for example this can be easily done by adding the following .vscode/launch.json file:

I had a near-identical experience. I looked into switching in 2019 and ran into this 2016 bug which was a showstopper for me. Fixed it myself, grand total 4 line diff. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10643

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), always create a new Python file for your project.

Code Editor: Choose a code editor like Visual Studio Code that offers good support for web technologies and extensions for PWA development.

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), create a new Python file for our music player project. It's helpful to have separate files for different parts of your project.
