emacs-for-vimmers VS ccls

git clone https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers

Suggest to start off with a small vim-like config if doom or spacemacs aren't for you (see emacs-for-vimmers).

I prefer not to depend on any existing frameworks, here is the emacs/VIM config I wish I had starting out - minimal & commented: emacs-for-vimmers

If you don't want a starter kit - but are interested in a commented vim-like setup, checout: emacs-for-vimmers. Even if you are not into VIM, the defaults may be of interest to you.

I came from a fairly similar place, this is a fairly minimal package set to have a useful evil-mode up and running: https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers

This is a fully self contained config made by making minor changes to emacs-for-vimmers that works in my tests.

If you'd like to have a reference for a lite weight vim/emacs setup, checkout https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers - for a commented configuration that gets you up and running without having to buy into a framework.

Suggest https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers to get you up and running with something approximating a typical development configuration in VIM.

Check packages used by emacs-for-vimmers - the config file is short and commented, giving a minimal VIM-like setup that includes features useful to developers.

If you like building your own config from scratch - check out emacs-for-vimmers as a reference.

Then it would just have a dependency on Clang, and you couldn't use Emacs at all (since you can't use Clang).

AFAIK, the only alternative to the clangd language server is ccls: https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls

The base config adds about 15 lines (I have extra settings adding another 15 lines), then each language server adds a few lines per augroup. Example config for ccls.

Try ccls instead, it has setup instructions for many LSP clients in the wiki: https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls

vim-lsp and ccls, supertab for auto-completion

these days a good lsp plugin will get you 90% of what you need for most languages and codebases. once youve got that set up its just a matter of picking lsp servers. i use ccls for c/c++. if you set it up and its not giving you hints for godot classes you probably have to point ccls at the proper godot-cpp subdirs using a .ccls file in your project root.

I installed ccls using snap for ubuntu.

C++/C language server: ccls
