Tmux, NeoVim, etc. to write pure Kotlin code?
You might want to look at Scala, they have proper LSP support with metals which means you can write your code in vscode, neovim, emacs, or even fleet (the new jetbrains text editor).
-
New plugin to support LSP file operations
Please write in the comments if you know of any language servers I should test it with. Currently I tested only metals and rust-analyzer.
-
Why are all the guides on using LSP functionality full of bloat?
If you are using nvim-lspconfig you can pass the settings as a Lua table to the setup function. For example, here are may metals settings:
- Type-Signature.com
-
What is the one thing you need everyday to make your job easier?
Bazel support in Metals. I didn't spend all that time figuring out and adjusting Emacs/Spacemacs and making my workflow (almost) mouse-free just to scrap my config and switch to IDEA's rodent infested ways.

Scala 2.13.9 is here
There is one small issue involving code completion returning inappropriate completions in some cases; https://github.com/scalameta/metals/pull/4414 will fix it, once it's included in a release. Perhaps that's the PR you saw?

Scala Isn't Fun Anymore
It is, by quite a bit.
While the "Scala IDE" project is dead for all practical purposes, IntelliJ IDEA's Scala plugin is actually pretty amazing. There's also a VisualStudio plugin that does pretty much the same and is advancing by leaps and bounds. There are also interconnecting projects that provide i.e. language server or build server that are reused by other projects. It's pretty modular. Metals (https://scalameta.org/metals/) is amazing.
In general the language has become a wee bit faster to build, there was good progress with build times during the 2.12/2.13 cycles.
With Scala3 the language got a bit simpler; concepts that were implemented explicitly using (hehe) implicits got their own keywords and a lot of the opinionated boilercode that cause a lot of debates is now generated during complication and hidden. A lot of "standardization" has occurred.

Starting with Scala: editor and version choice?
IntelliJ has its own BSP. The other one is Metals. You can use it with many IDEs (vim, emacs, vscode, atom,...). Use it with emacs if you're comfortable with it.

Code Sketching with Kotlin Notebooks: Developer Guide
For these demonstrations, I'm using IntelliJ IDEA, equipped with the Kotlin Notebook plugin and all necessary dependencies. If youโd like to follow along step-by-step, I recommend setting up your environment similarly. Here is a short installation guide.

Implementing an Auto-logout Feature for Android in Kotlin
Android Studio or IntellijIDEA (configured for Android development) installed and working in your machine.

Working with Environment Variables in Java
If you are using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse, you can set environment variables in the configuration settings of your application.
-
Kotlin and Azure Functions - Automating the deployment
Being somewhat allergic to coding in Java (this is a personal thing, if you like Java then good for you) I decided to try out writing the code using Kotlin from JetBrains instead. I'm already using IntelliJ as I work with Apache Spark using Scala, so the tooling was already there and ready to go for this.

Groovy ๐ท Cheat Sheet - 01 Say "Hello" from Groovy
IntelliJ (look for the community edition) on the other hand offered great out-of-box Groovy support including IntelliSence, building, and running features. So, I sticked with it ๐

The Fossil Sync Protocol
I readily admit I am not familiar enough with fossil to know about the impedance mismatch, but I'll point out that https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-plugins/tree/idea/241.... https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/tree/idea/24... https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/tree/idea/24... https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/tree/idea/24... may a long way toward finding how they think about those operations

IDE Suggestions
I've always used IntelliJ IDEA, other IDEs start feeling useless once you go down the Jetbrains path ๐

You are never taught how to build quality software
I offer, again, my JetBrains GrammarKit counterpoint from the last time that assertion came up <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38192427>

I consider the JetBrains parsing system to be world class and they seem to hand-write very few (instead building on this system: https://github.com/JetBrains/Grammar-Kit#readme )
