  • Kotlin is a much better language than Java even with all the new stuff Java has added.
    1 project | /r/Kotlin | 11 Dec 2023
    There's a community-made one, but of course as much effort as has been put into it it's not as featureful as JetBrains's own stuff.
  • Noob here, would neovim work for my usecase
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 9 Dec 2023
    Kotlin is probably the worst case for Neovim. While there is a language server for Kotlin, it's not very advanced and does not look like it's actively developed.
  • Kotlin on VScode, intellij, or android studio?
    1 project | /r/Kotlin | 23 Jun 2023
    Hi, if you are going to do Kotlin the easiest choice is android studio with Kotlin plugin. Using Vscode is more tricky because Jetbrains does not want to support lsp for Kotlin so you only have https://github.com/fwcd/kotlin-language-server available to write Kotlin on Vscode.
  • I LOVE Rust's exception handling
    3 projects | /r/rust | 10 May 2023
    Kotlin Language Server puts a warning on this code, because the bar inside the lambda shadows the function argument bar. Flow typing solves this problem by eliminating the need to redefine bar as a new non-nullable variable in the branch where we've verified it's non-nullable.
  • Kotlin is tightly linked to IntelliJ and that's a risk
    4 projects | /r/Kotlin | 22 Jan 2023
    You want to change something about that? Go and help over at the kotin lsp server. It's maintained, and welcomes contributions. I sometimes use it in my day job (writing Kotlin backend code)
  • Kotlin 1.8.0 Released
    1 project | /r/programming | 17 Jan 2023
    There is https://github.com/fwcd/kotlin-language-server, but I wouldn't expect something more official from a company that refuse to support LSP in their IDEs. JetBrains is the Apple of the IDE world.
  • What are best plugins for C++, Java, Kotlin, Python, & LaTex
    9 projects | /r/neovim | 30 Dec 2022
    Oddly enough, we use mostly the same languages. However, I would advise against using neovim with Kotlin: its language server has an excessive memory usage and its debugger is cumbersome with neovim (I haven't managed to get it working, and currently it also lacks an entry in nvim-dap's wiki).
  • From zero to 10M lines of Kotlin
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Oct 2022
    I'll bring up the Kotlin LSP[0] every time I see Kotlin on HN because I really hope the LSP takes off (which would make it viable to use Kotlin with a non-IntelliJ editor).

    Kotlin as a language looks really cool, but I don't want to give up terminal-based, modal editing (which I'd have to in order to use IntelliJ).

    Along those lines, I once tried diving into using Gradle outside IntelliJ, and I couldn't find any good resources to help with that. If folks have hints/links-to-blog-posts with regards to that as well, that'd be great!

  • Idea: Jetbrains Fleet's Code Engine as an LSP?
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 15 Oct 2022
    I've tried [this Kotlin LSP](https://github.com/fwcd/kotlin-language-server) and it isn't perfect. It's not complete, but it does some of the basic things.
  • Kotlin language server doesn't work ("0 client(s) attached to this buffer")
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 3 Jun 2022
    I've downloaded kotlin language server from here: https://github.com/fwcd/kotlin-language-server

  • Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
    3 projects | dev.to | 28 Apr 2024
    If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

    Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:

    This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:

    https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/cve-2024-24576.html

    Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

  • I hate Rust (programming language)
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 22 Apr 2024
    > instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.

    Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

    Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.

    To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/
