kok.nvim VS ddc.vim

In the examples listed on this page https://github.com/ms-jpq/coq_nvim, there is a pattern overlay over the whole screen. Is there a neovim plugin that does this? Thanks.

nvim-cmp or coq_nvim is for autocompletion. Treesitter is for parsing language syntax. (I guess the most typical use case for this would be syntax highlighting.) Note that (neo)vim also has built in manual completion that you can use by setting up your omnifunc and triggering it with in insert mode .

Aw man that's not nice to hear. I have had my own struggle with lsp not gonna lie. I used to use coc until it got too slow, after struggling for like 2 days lol lsp is working fast and neat. I'd suggest you to take a look at coq https://github.com/ms-jpq/coq_nvim which claims to be fast as fuck (literally lol) and also claims to be faster than lsp (because its written using c or something). Haven't tried it personally

Coq_nvim

I'm attempting to use (coq_nvim)[https://github.com/ms-jpq/coq_nvim]. This is my config:

Does your coq_nvim and nvim-lspconfig really load? Because they have opts = true

I'd be happy for someone who knows more about this to correct me. But in my experience as well, nvim-cmp is not as good completion as vscode, its suggestions can be all over the place sometimes. I found that coq_nvim tends to better in this regard. I still prefer nvim-cmp for other reasons but you should definitely try coq_nvim out and see if you have a better experience.

Coq_nvim isn't the same as Coc.nvim. Coq is a completion plugin with lots of caching written in Python that works alongside the builtin LSP. Coc is an LSP client (and has it's own plugin ecosystem) written in Node.

There are some like https://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips and https://github.com/ms-jpq/coq_nvim. Speed is not really an issue, I guess people just prefer to have fewer dependencies and use lua which is already bundled in neovim.

Maybe using coq.nvim instead of nvim-cmp could help (?) dince it caches the LSP responses. I haven't test it, though

Have a look at ddc.vim and denops.vim

There is shougo/ddc.vim by the same author

e.g:https://github.com/Shougo/ddc.vim

I use dense-analysis/Ale for code linting. Lately, I moved to update my tab completion from deoplete to Shougo/ddc.vim; the autocompletion of Ale is routed to ddc using statiolake/ddc-ale but the Ale autocomplete leaves things to be desired.

I was looking at ddc.vim and it looked somewhat similar to nvim-cmp. There's also multiple sources for it with no inbuilt ones. So, I was wondering if anyone has used both of them and could provide some pointers on a rough comparison between the both. Also, if there's any config file with sources for lsp, buffer, and other useful ones already setup, then could you share that too?

Sadly deoplete doesn't play well with 'some' asynchronous plugin sources (ex: vim-iced). I still got to try ddc.vim to see if things are easier and if middle word completion is done right.
