mlua VS kok.nvim

The release notes can be found here.

I'm not a specialist about text based multiplayer game, but from what I saw on Wikipedia it seem doable to do it with Rust and Bevy. On top of that you can add a layer of LUA with https://github.com/khvzak/mlua (or write your own bindings and sandbox later).

mlua can run on emscripten target with Luau backend -> https://github.com/khvzak/mlua/issues/23

You can also look at the "dependents" section on crates.io https://crates.io/crates/mlua/reverse_dependencies and github https://github.com/khvzak/mlua/network/dependents

I know mlua does support Async. I also prefer it over rlua

Note rlua doesn't allow you to create native modules with it and has largely been superseded by https://github.com/khvzak/mlua since it's more maintained, has native module support and stuff like Luau and async/await.

I'm glad to announce first mlua version 0.8.0-beta.1 with Roblox Luau support.

I believe mlua [0] is the recommended Lua Rust binding now.

[0] https://github.com/khvzak/mlua

This is achieved through a backend/client architecture -- all core functionality (getting query results, opening selected item, search engine fallback, etc.) is implemented in a "backend" module, which is a Rust library exposed as a Lua module via mlua. The results returned by the backend then get fed into your fuzzy-finder of choice through thin clients, or "providers".

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
