nvim-gps VS nvim-treesitter-context

I've been using winbar.nvim with nvim-gps which depends on treesitter. Unfortunately it's been archived/deprecated but still works fine.

With the deprecation of nvim-gps we are left with LSP's more accurate code context parser nvim-navic or lspsaga. I however only use LSP for like 5 languages as opposed to treesitter since it's just easier to install all language parser

and nvim-navic or in this projects case it is its predecessor - nvim-gps

I currently use feline.nvim as a framework for creating my custom statusline, and before that I was using galaxyline.nvim. A feature that I would really like though is for each section of the statusline to able to dynamically resize based on the window size, and dissappear if the window gets narrow enough, based on some priority that I give them and some truncation rule. By truncation I mean that for instance a file path could get shortened by pathshorten(), the filetype indicator would only display the devicon and not the filetype name, nvim-gps would only use a depth of 1, etc... This behaviour would be defined by the user, but the framework would calculate which components to truncate in order to fit as many as possible in the priority that the user has chosen for each component.

I've added a pull request to support json https://github.com/SmiteshP/nvim-gps/pull/41

Very cool! Sort of reminds me of treesitter-context. Any chance for compatibility? An example could be you either would disable context when something is pinned or somehow displace it other, depending on which is "on top" could be neat.

It's for context and navigation, not completions. So it wouldn't replace nvim-cmp. It probably doesn't replace anything you already have unless you are already using a winbar. It combines features of treesitter-context, symbols-outline, and a file navigator but in a different presentation.

Not quite the same thing, but arguably a better alternative : https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

For 2: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context

I really like nvim-treesitter-context as an alternative for 1.

nvim-treesitter-context implements "sticky scroll" where, depending on where your cursor is placed, the top lines of your window will be replaced by the otherwise offscreen lines that declare what function you're in (e.g function test(...), the line that begins the current class (e.g. public class Student implements Person {), the variable name of the current table (e.g. local planets = {), etc.

Very different in my eyes, but I love nvim-treesitter-context. Definitely another tool in helping the brain parse code -- I think of it as helping with long range context, whereas blockman helps me focus on local context and makes scoping relationships more subconciously available.

I have seen https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-context is recommended, and it works similar. But the way the context info are displayed in AstroNvim is much nicer
