Comment.nvim: Simple and powerful comment plugin for neovim. Supports commentstring, dot repeat, left-right/up-down motions, hooks, and more
Yeah, you are right but currently, most of them only support commentstring which means only single-line comments. But block comments are sometimes useful too. Also, I was using tcomment before, which IMO is the best commenting plugin for vim/neovim as it supports left-right motion comments which I haven't seen in any Lua plugin as of now. So that's why I decided to write this plugin to honor tcomment and to port all of its features to Lua :)

nerdcommenter seems to better figure out what comment syntax to use than vim-commentary, but i like vim-commentary more at everything else
That said, I switched to tcomment years ago because it better detected single va multi-line comments for me.

vim-commentary block vs line comments
Vim-commentary is great, but AFAICT, only supports one commenting style per file type. tcomment.vim supports line, inline, and block styles.

Rust setup for neovim
Hi everyone. I'm looking to have a better setup for Rust in neovim. I do have rust-analyzer installed for useful lsp things but I was hoping to get tags working for it as well. I was using vim-gutentags (https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags) for navigating useful functions and stuff but couldn't quite get it to work for rust. Is there a simple way to do it or do I need rusty-tags and some aucommand to get it to work?

Project & File navigation
use tags, I like https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags for this. I might use my local .vimrc to tweak the config (exclude compiled source files and other uninteresting things)

Having trouble with ctags
Without more information, it's hard to point you in the right direction. The tags file could be out-of-date, in which case you can try to re-generate it (vim-gutentags for tags auto-generation). You could have 2 function declarations with the same name, in which case you can try :tag to cycle through tags (supports partials, like :tag F which will suggest FOO, FAR, FAB ...etc) or :tag to see a list of possible options (supports partials, like :tag F which will list FOO, FAR, FAB, ...etc) for various matching tags you can jump to (fzf.vim provides a tags fuzzy finder via :Tags). Maybe you're experiencing :h tag-priority?

Vim – Minimal Setup Explained
You can then use :cnext and :cprev (or focusing the window and selecting an entry) to navigate between them.
As others have stated, you can also use ctags (plugins like https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags are useful for refreshing tags in a project), but for some languages you may need to add a tag definition (e.g. for something like rust or zig). For older languages like C you should be fine.

Can you add custom functionality for goto definition for lsp to use multiple langauges?
Not sure if it will help in this case, but I also depend on ctags for when the lsp fails (e.g. code it doesn't compile for some reason). Here you let a program create a tags file, e.g. I use https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags (it seems it can parse json files, though I'm not sure what kind of tags are generated from this and if they will be useful to you) with https://github.com/ludovicchabant/vim-gutentags to update the tags file. The tags file just contains symbol names with locations where they are defined, and vim has builtin functionality to use these tags files :h tag and they (can) work filetype independent. For example if I mention a C type in a markdown document I can just use ctrl-[ to jump to its definition in the C source file. Possibly you can generate tags files yourself from the json files to help with this, the tags file format is not very complicated. Tags also are not very intelligent and depend on unique names for them to work well, there is the :h g_CTRL-] that can help, but for symbols that are very common (e.g. init or something that potentially has like 20+ definitions) it doesn't really work.
