Jedi-vim VS Geany

jedi-vim does autocomplete, docstring/signature/stub lookup, usage finding, bulk renaming...

The readme for jedi-vim says it works with Python 3:

To be able to use ctags you have to run ctags in the source directory to generate the index files. But a better way is to just modify the keywordprg when in a Python buffer or even better use a plugin like pydoc.vim or jedi-vim

I added https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim to my plugins in ~/.config/nvim/init.vim and ran PlugInstall and it worked, but whenever I try to open a python file and the autocomplete part should come up I get

But LSP is a critical part of my Python setup, where I use David Halter's jedi-vim for completion, renaming, go-to-definition, finding usages of variables, etc., so I'm definitely not opposed to LSP on principle. I guess I just found Latex wasn't a complicated enough language for me to benefit from the full suite of features an LSP provides.

Install linux (WSL) with this tutorial (assuming you are on windows) and go through this tutorial to get used to it. To write python scripts, use vim and install this plugin.

I think you can get that behavior with https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim but I haven't tried it.

Firstly I will like to install Jedi for code completion in Python. The plugin can be simple and straightforward to install using any of the above plugin managers. Jedi-Vim provides some neat and clean** syntax analytics and autocompletion for Python in Vim**. You'll find the docs and installation process here JEDI-VIM

I've never used it, not really a python gal, but from what I read, jedi sounds like a good one (https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi-vim).

You might want to at least use a code editor with syntax highlighting so that it gets a little easier to read the code. Personally I use Geany but there are many other ones you can use.

right on the main page, there is a screenshot. If you click it, it takes you to more screenshots.

Open https://www.geany.org/ in a web browser like chrome or firefox

Check out Geany. It is free, open source, cross platform, and lightweight. It has support for dozens of coding languages. LINK: https://www.geany.org/

I still enjoy Geany. It is lacking certain features I could do with, but it's joyful to use something that light: https://www.geany.org/

When I installed my IDE I just wanted something lightweight, so I went with Geany. I've been using it for years without trouble.

I would say, try out geany: https://www.geany.org/

Geany. Nothing can beat that one. - https://www.geany.org/
