cmp border background is changed all of a sudden.
Doing a fast scan on the commit history this is probably related to https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp/pull/1689 . Hope it helps.

Do I need NeoVIM?
https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp This is an autocompletion engine https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter This allows NeoVim to install parsing scripts so NeoVim can do things like code highlighting. https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim Not strictly necessary, but allows you to access a repo of LSP, install them, and configure them for without you actively messing about in config files. https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig Also not strictly necessary, but vastly simplifies LSP setup. https://github.com/williamboman/mason-lspconfig.nvim This lets the above two plugins talk to each other more easily.

About some deprecations in Neovim core
But today I'm a different person, and I'm sure that this is the right decision. I already gave a spiel on the cmp PR, but lemme copy-paste my response for those that weren't following the issue or don't check their GitHub notifications:
-
nvim starts multiple node processes leading to very high memory usage
EDIT: I was able to reproduce the issue with a simplified nvim-cmp init.vim - posted here: https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-cmp/issues/1728

[Need Help]: I am having trouble getting autocomplete with clangd.
You need to add nvim-cmp and cmp-nvim-lsp

is it possible to limit the size of nvim-cmps autocompletion window?
one thing that always annoyed me is how the autocomplete window behaves. when the space below your current line isn't sufficient it just teleports above the line. i know you can set a custom menu direction but i'd much rather have it pop up in a consistent place that is below the current line. the other behavior i dislike is the sizing. it's as big as the longest function in the list which can make the window enormous, to the point where there's almost no place left for the docs window. there aren't really any docs in the example below but i imagine with the little space that is left it'll get troublesome for more verbose docs such as with rust. i'd like to somehow tell nvim-cmp to always pop up below the current line, no matter how long the list is and possibly limit the horizontal size. is that at all possible? i've looked through the nvim-cmp wiki but haven't found an adequate solution. does this go beyond nvim-cmp?

Toggling the nvim-cmp documentation window
Update: This isn't currently supported by nvim-cmp (and in fact it has been a feature request for a bit) and so I did my best and opened a PR that implements it :)

Noob post: Been using neovim for 3 days and I followed the following instructions (see post) for LSP integration and got "attempt to index local 'lsp' (a nil value)".
I think it can be on any lua file. Plus I checked completion.nvim is now on archived.

How in the world do you set up nvim-cmp?
You don't, nvim-cmp sets up you. Jokes aside, I am using completion-nvim. Unfortunately it got abandoned just as Neovim 0.5.1 got released, which contained a breaking change. You can look into the pending PRs to see how to fix it for yourself, just use one of the fixed forks. It really sucks, but unless someone steps up an creates a new completion plugin that's what I am stuck with.

How to configure ALE and floating windows?
I couldn't figure out how to change this. I found some options, some of which made an entire split window appear above... that's hideous. I also found this, but that works with lua. How do I even set up these lua scripts? I don't get it. Can I get some guidance? Thanks.

How do you deal with poorly documented plugins?
I have tried to move to nvim-cmp since completion-nvim is dead, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to make it not automatically select the first completion candidate. If I type date and hit to insert a new line, cmp takes as the "confirm selection" key (because I have mapped it that way) and expands the snippet. I only want to confirm a selection if I actually selected something from the menu. completion-nvim may be dead, but at least its author had the courtesy to write down how to use it in complete plain English sentences instead of broken English one-liners. Eventually I gave up and moved back to the old setup.

Neovim Python Dev Config
That will give you the basics, you should see linter diagnostics and auto omin completion should work. For better auto-completion and snippets you can set up one of the completion- and snippets plugins. Personally I use completion-nvim and Ultisnips. There may be better plugins out there, that's just what I happen to have installed.

Auto-completion plugin alternatives?
I recently upgraded from Neovim 0.5.0 to 0.5.1 and LSP autocompletion stopped working. I'm using https://github.com/nvim-lua/completion-nvim but it looks like its maintenance could be much better. I'm looking for some alternative but I'm not sure what would be a good choice for LSP. Any recommendations?
