omnisharp-roslyn VS neovim

Apropos lsp, these two might be interesting, if you haven't yet given up on C#. Again, that should work on many editors, including the evil one at hand. Note how both explicitly name vim, emacs and vscode in their documentation.

I've been using Neovim (on Windows, not WSL) with Unity and the Omnisharp LSP smoothly for a while now, and it's definitely possible to have a decent experience. Assuming your config is already setup for LSP, completion, snippets, etc., there are a few Unity/Omnisharp specific workarounds to be aware of:

I solved it using the workaround at the end of this issue thread in omnisharp-roslyn

See: https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn/issues/2483 for some solutions.

No, Sematic Tokens has an issue opened for it since Dec 2022, with couple (well, at least one that I have seen) PRs open trying to fix it and some hacking around the issue in the comments, but it's not solved afaik.

Have a Look at this

I think the issue is related to 'Semantic Tokens' introduced in version 0.9 https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn/issues/2483

I did, but it's a little bit tricky. If you could wait some hours I will share it with you after work. You can take a look at this thread first: https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn/issues/2250

As a software engineer, choosing and understanding your text editor is important part of your work, as it impacts your productivity and workflow efficiency. It's like choosing the perfect tool for any trade - you need to know what tool to use and how to use it effectively if you want to excel. For me, I use Neovim as my editor and I have been using it for a little over a year now.

This got me thinking about my recent pivot, my switch to Neovim by way of LazyVim to write most of my code, and using tmux to keep terminal states alive after closing a session.

Neovim: Make sure you have Neovim installed on your system. You can check the official website for installation instructions: https://neovim.io/ Git: We'll be using Git to clone the LazyVim starter pack. If you don't have Git, you can download it from https://git-scm.com/downloads

There are several ways to install Neovim. This wiki provides several guidelines on how to install Neovim.

All these thoughts I've shared, I would have them on occasion - but ever since I switched to Linux and Neovim, my curiosity has been through the roof. Switching over to Neovim and Linux was a not so fun weekend of configuration and spending half a day getting my work's local dev environment running on my new OS (which no one has tested development on). But I now have a deeper understanding of the tools I use, and have a text editor configured to be the most optimal for the way I want to use it.
