lsp-zero.nvim VS nvim-lsp-installer

I'm using lsp-zero and i followed this tutorial https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/blob/v2.x/doc/md/guides/setup-with-nvim-jdtls.md and i have essentially just copy pasted the code from there into ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugin/jdtls.lua

Personally, i think nvim-lint is the best alternative currently, specially so because it has no dependencies on external binaries. This guide assumes you already have your LSP set up with nvim-lspconfig (or an alternative like lsp-zero). You should also have an way to install the linters you are gonna need, i highly recommend Mason with mason-lspconfig.

For those new to neovim, the documentation in lsp-zero has a tutorial that shows a configuration from scratch. It shows how to get a plugin a manager, a colorscheme, and setup lsp-zero.

Try https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim, a great introduction and it is pretty usable without any further config

For neovim, you can still use the same extensions; however there's also a built-in LSP client. The downside of using the built-in is you'll need to have more extensions installed/configured to get all the features out of the box...BUT projects do exist to help simplify that, like lsp-zero.

lap-zero.nvim - default config for nvim-lspconfig, mason.nvim, nvim-cmp.

In version v2.x the keybindings you set on the "global" on_attach of lsp-zero should work without any extra config. v2.x also has a tutorial on how to work with nvim-jdtls: setup with nvim-jdtls

Creator of lsp-zero suggested a complete solution to use ray-x/lsp_signature in this issue: https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/issues/69.

I had previous gotten a working setup with https://github.com/williamboman/nvim-lsp-installer however, I have been unable to get it working ever since.

The only way to stay up to date, is when you read the commits if you update the plugins. In this case for the lsp-installer in the commit bfa74f4 was mentioned that the plugin will no longer maintained

A word of caution, I believe lspinstall has been deprecated in favor of nvim-lspinstall which itself has also been deprecated in favor of mason-lspconfig

We have now migrated from nvim-lsp-instasller to mason which provides automatic LSP and null-ls configuration after installation

nvim-lsp-installer or mason.nvim. FYI lsp-zero also uses mason.nvim for managing installation.

I'm using nvim-lsp-installer it installs typescript when installing volar. So I had given it that path. Plus I had typescript locally installing since I'm using vue3+ts(vite) template

Though mason only recently replaced nvim-lsp-installer. Same author but they decided to make a complete rewrite given the broader scope beyond only providing language servers. And nvim-dap had it's initial release in late July. The actual dap servers are all kind of mature since they've been running on vscode for a couple of years or more now - and the protocol is apparently almost as old as lsp. So when I call them beta, it's more a commentary on the state of the neovim side of the ecosystem. If you mess around getting nvim-dap to work then there's a chance things might change over the coming months and you might have to return to configuring it more often than you'd like. In this sense for now I'm happy just to open vscode or another more appropriate IDE to debug. But I can see myself using the plugins in a year or two when they've matured.

Here are a few resources to get you started: 1. https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig 1. https://github.com/golang/tools/tree/master/gopls 1. https://github.com/williamboman/nvim-lsp-installer

Can recommend a combination of omnisharp-roslyn native LSP (installed manually or through something like mason or nvim-lsp-installer) with omnisharp-vim for some extra C#-niceties like OmniSharpRunTest, etc.
