syntastic VS awesome-neovim

2) Syntax check https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic 3) File navigation https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree 4) Autocomplete There are many autocomplete extensions. I haven't found one that I feel comfortable to recommend. Another way is to create a txt file with all the key words and lines in the languages you use, make an autocommand that adds the txt file to the buffer, and then use ctrl-n or ctrl-p to autocomplete. You can also use ctrl-x-ctrl-l to autocmplete entire lines. 5) Running code Add commands in your .vmrc to run the current file as a a whatever file. I use :J to run java files, :P to run python files, :C to run c files and so on. For example, this is my command to run a java file: command J execute "!java %:t"

I dropped into the Syntastic plugin repo a few minutes ago to check the documentation and noticed that the first section in the README is a deprecation notice. The commit message says "add deprecation note" and is dated 26 days ago.

I typically code in the terminal with vim + idf.py and I've been working heavily with esp-idf for a while now. Does anyone have any recommendations for some c-style linters and/or formatters? I typically use syntastic to do code linting but I haven't been able to find a syntax checker that doesn't have quirks with esp-idf code.

Syntastic - it appears they didnt actually support neovim to begin with, so I expect it will be left behind

I use https://ycm-core.github.io/YouCompleteMe/ for autocomplete and https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic for syntax changing as well. For my python projects this was enough to move away from VS Code. There are other plugins I use to help me code with python with vim but this should answer most of your question.

I want to create a new vim syntax checker for a new programming language that is not used widely, first i tried to read the code of the follwing plugins neomake, syntastic , and Ale in order to understand how i can build my own syntax checker plugin but i could not really get it so i just want know what is the best and easy way to create syntax checker plugin for vim

My vim looks like most peoples, I guess. I have a few plugins to make things pretty, eg. LightLine and IndentGuides, and I use Syntastic for linting. I tried Ale but found it too annoying in practice.

I personally don't use this functionality so I can't recommend a specific plugin, but if you search for “treesitter”/“tree-sitter” in this list, you will find several of them:

Does the community have a central repository of all plugins? I’ve used both this repo and neovim craft. If the latter creator has exposed the data via api that’s a fantastic plugin idea.

I like the poster you made, and I think this can definitely help people who first creating their config :) Did you submit it to the big-list yet?

> I'm using vim for a long time now, but recently I heard that neovim is noticeably faster. Is that true?

Yes; of course, YMMV. Even if you use Neovim just like Vim, it's snappier—the refactor resulted in 30% less code.

> Have most folks switched to neovim by now? Should I care?

There's two broad groups. Users who have been using Vim for like 20 years and they have a configuration they like and see no reason to change.

The other group wants all of the new hotness of Language Server Protocol, tree sitter, everything's asynchronous, there's a proper API and lots of new plugins that wouldn't be possible using Vimscript, for the most part.

Check out https://neovim.io/doc/user/vim_diff.html#nvim-features for details.

Being a Vim (now Neovim) user for close to 20 years, Neovim has attracted lots of new people to Vim-style editors and they've brought lots of energy. There's also been quite an influx of VS Code users.

Neovim is not an IDE, but it can support many IDE-like features via plugins written in Lua. There are several Neovim distributions, which you can install quickly and play around without committing to anything [1]. LunaVim, LazyVim and AstroVim are popular Neovim distributions.

It's important to understand that your existing .vimrc will Just Work if you want to start with that.

I started here: Awesome Neovim, it has a huge list of nice things to use for your own setup. I watched a few tutorials on youtube to know with which plugins to start.
