nvim-lazyman VS lsp-zero.nvim

I made Github Pages from some of my repositories. It's a nice feature, thanks!

$NVIM_APPNAME might help if the distro's file structure doesn't work with your git model (like, AstroNvim wants you to use a sub-theme-thing for your personal config customizations, and this might not be graceful to implement as just a separate git branch). https://gist.github.com/elijahmanor/b279553c0132bfad7eae23e34ceb593b has some shell functions using nvim_appname for easily switching between different config repos and even https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman for trying out different distros.

I haven't posted much about lazyman because I'm busy working on it and it is changing rapidly. Also, as you can see, a lot of my time is spent dreaming up Neovim configuration management fantasies.

There are many excellent distributions, personal configurations, and custom configurations to study. I wrote a Neovim configuration manager to make it easy for me to install, initialize, and explore multiple Neovim configurations. Most of the popular Neovim distributions and configurations are supported in this tool.

I'm also a fan of these preconfigured Neovim configurations. I've learned a lot by exploring many of them. To help me install and initialize multiple Neovim configurations I wrote Lazyman, a Neovim configuration manager. Currently Lazyman supports over 40 Neovim configurations.

This one has a good collection of configs, from simple to complicated: doctorfree/nvim-lazyman

See https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman for info on Lazyman.

Currently lazyman supports Neovim configurations using the Lazy, Packer, and vim-plug plugin managers. Not all Neovim configurations install and initialize cleanly. Some have hard-coded paths assuming ~/.config/nvim as the configuration location. Others do not initialize cleanly from the command line (nvim --headless ...). However, many configurations not supported out-of-the-box by lazyman can be installed and initialized. If you find an interesting configuration that works well with Lazyman or if your favorite config does not initialize cleanly with Lazyman then open an issue at https://github.com/doctorfree/nvim-lazyman/issues

I'm using lsp-zero and i followed this tutorial https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/blob/v2.x/doc/md/guides/setup-with-nvim-jdtls.md and i have essentially just copy pasted the code from there into ~/.config/nvim/lua/plugin/jdtls.lua

Personally, i think nvim-lint is the best alternative currently, specially so because it has no dependencies on external binaries. This guide assumes you already have your LSP set up with nvim-lspconfig (or an alternative like lsp-zero). You should also have an way to install the linters you are gonna need, i highly recommend Mason with mason-lspconfig.

For those new to neovim, the documentation in lsp-zero has a tutorial that shows a configuration from scratch. It shows how to get a plugin a manager, a colorscheme, and setup lsp-zero.

Try https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim, a great introduction and it is pretty usable without any further config

For neovim, you can still use the same extensions; however there's also a built-in LSP client. The downside of using the built-in is you'll need to have more extensions installed/configured to get all the features out of the box...BUT projects do exist to help simplify that, like lsp-zero.

lap-zero.nvim - default config for nvim-lspconfig, mason.nvim, nvim-cmp.

In version v2.x the keybindings you set on the "global" on_attach of lsp-zero should work without any extra config. v2.x also has a tutorial on how to work with nvim-jdtls: setup with nvim-jdtls

Creator of lsp-zero suggested a complete solution to use ray-x/lsp_signature in this issue: https://github.com/VonHeikemen/lsp-zero.nvim/issues/69.
