neogen VS LuaSnip

For any Neovim users, I highly recommend danymat/neogen. It's fast, works with Neovim's treesitter integration, and is written with Lua so scripting and extending it is pretty easy. Python support in particular is great.

I use LunarVim (I hope it isn't a problem) and TSInsalled clangd, I also added Neogen plugin

There is neogen for generating the boilerplate automatically for not just Lua but also other languages with this kind of integration like Javascript (jsdocs)

Neogen might be what you want. But also note that some language servers help via auto completion when you start writing a doc comment, e.g. Scala metals will insert the function parameters in to the comment for you

PS: I use neogen.

I think you mean https://github.com/danymat/neogen/

Well, I jsdoc and similar types of comments have a lot of things to consider so I suggest you to use a separate plugin: https://github.com/danymat/neogen

neogen: Use treesitter parser to generate annotation, and use extmark for placeholders to jump.

If you're using Neovim, check out LuaSnip: https://github.com/L3MON4D3/LuaSnip

I’ve been using LuaSnip and never put much thought into it. And this was mainly because of because it seemed like the default and had good LSP integration. The one downside is that creating custom snippets is not that ergonomic, but I don’t mind it if it’s the price to pay for speed.

You can use LuaSnip and load snippets from VSCode. The documentation is pretty complete, but here is my config in case you want another reference.

I am trying to add snippets for python, i have LuaSnip and friendly-snippets installed, but for some reason it does not load the snippets. This is how i load the plugins:

There was a similar issue in LuaSnip repo. The culprit was a keymap in the config. Do you happen to have a similar keymap somewhere in your config?

I have decided to extract my Haskell snippets for LuaSnip into a plugin: haskell-snippets.nvim.

Not exactly what you're talking about but you could look into LuaSnip?

There are a few more resources for new users as well on the official repo, and you can find the implementation in Examples/snippets.lua

You mean snippets? If yes, you can try Luasnip and friendly-snippets with nvim-cmp and here's the setup guide. Hope it helps

I had the same issue recently. It was the case when I inserted a snippet but didn't fill out all the placeholders right away. This helped me. This is an autocommand that unlinks the unfinished snippet when you change the mode.
