paq-nvim VS nvim-compe

If you want a dead simple package mamage that only puts packages in opt and start, you can use paq.nvim

Is there anyone here who can share some feedback on how much lazy.nvim has been better than what you were using previously? If my context helps, I'm using paq-nvim, previously was using packer.

This was a problem when I was using paq as my manager, now I have the same problem with packer. It never happened when I wanted to install new plugins, only on updating. With packer I have a workaround: after it fails to sync it allows to re-run all failed jobs, and each times about a half of failed jobs fail again, others update successfully, so I can iteratively sync everything, but that's a terrible waste of time;

Options: - packloadall command family and maybe git submodules - minpac which is a thin utility around the above - vim-plug - old but still popular for it does the job - packer.nvim is a popular choice for lua configs, never got to using it myself - paq-nvim is another often mentioned lua solution - dozens of other solutions

that sounds like paq, but slow?

On my Neovim setup, I simply have the following plugins. I use paq as a plugin manager:

paq.nvim

I use https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe and https://github.com/simrat39/rust-tools.nvim along with the built in LSP and auto completion works really well. You will want treesitter and all that setup too.

I want to share my code for my migration from nvim-compe (deprecated) to nvim-cmp. Though, I would describe myself as an experienced Vimmer I am not very familiar with the whole Lua thing (although I really appreciate it and hope that Lua's first class citizen can compete with the elisp ecosystem^^).

Wrong, plain and simple. A total misconception.

compe.nvim

For autocomplete/intellisense: https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe

But nvim-compe already exists.

completion-nvim OR nvim-compe

Here's some setup idea: - packer for package manager - clangd language server - nvim-lspconfig, required for navigator.lua - navigator.lua for enchanced IDE experience. This is a like adding a sugar to coffee. - completion-nvim OR nvim-compe for enchanching autocomplete & dropdown menu suggestion. - nvim-treesitter for better syntax highlighting. - telescope.nvim for amazing extensible & configurable fuzzy finder, you can also use fzf if you want. - Any custom color scheme you want (preferably one that supports tree sitter, like aurora )
