  • Using SonarLint language server in Vim?
    4 projects | /r/vim | 27 Oct 2023
    Has anybody managed or got an idea how to make SonarLint Language Server work with e.g. vim-lsp?
  • Vim Golang syntax is ugly
    4 projects | /r/vim | 28 May 2023
    You need to configure a language server. For C++ it's a bit tricky, so good luck with Go. There are other plugins that provide semantic highlighting using LSP, for example https://github.com/prabirshrestha/vim-lsp (I didn't try it, but it seems good).
  • Vim-writegood: nothing, but a simple Vim9 wrapper around write-good.
    5 projects | /r/vim | 21 May 2023
    ALE can use LSP as well. And if you are using vim-lsp, you can use the same instance of server for both with vim-lsp-ale bridge plugin.
  • small vimrc and lsp?
    4 projects | /r/vim | 15 May 2023
    I feel the same way. Not a one-liner but the smallest config LSP plugin I've found is vim-lsp. It works in both Vim and Neovim.
  • Should I move to NeoVim?
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 25 Apr 2023
    The only major feature that Neovim still has is a built in LSP client. But I find the built in Neovim LSP client is unusably buggy, you're much better off using any of the other LSP plugins. What I use is vim-lsp, but I've tried all of the major lsp client, they are all significantly better than the built in Neovim LSP.

    3 projects | /r/vim | 27 Mar 2023
    As for install/configuration, all you need is the latest Vim, the plugins I mentioned, and that bit in your vimrc. You can do a bit better than that if you copy the entire config with mappings from the vim-lsp GitHub page.
  • How to improve deoplete and vim-lsp (pylsp /jedi-language-server)
    3 projects | /r/vim | 22 Mar 2023
    I have a problem with Deoplete and Vim-LSP completion (Python's Pylsp and Jedi-Language-Server). The suggestion is much less, and it also misses a lot of opportunities to suggest compared to Deoplete-Jedi, which literally defeats the former by a large margin. Is there a setting to make this duo works like deoplete with deoplete-jedi?
  • The Ruff python linter is insanely good
    10 projects | /r/Python | 16 Mar 2023
    - add the [prabirshrestha/vim-lsp](https://github.com/prabirshrestha/vim-lsp) plugin and config to your `.vimrc` (note: `pylsp` is *not* necessary).

What are some alternatives?

coc.nvim - Nodejs extension host for vim & neovim, load extensions like VSCode and host language servers.

Colorizer - color hex codes and color names

ale - Check syntax in Vim/Neovim asynchronously and fix files, with Language Server Protocol (LSP) support

coc-css - Css language server extension for coc.nvim

YouCompleteMe - A code-completion engine for Vim

vimspector - vimspector - A multi-language debugging system for Vim

python-lsp-server - Fork of the python-language-server project, maintained by the Spyder IDE team and the community

vim-lsc - A vim plugin for communicating with a language server

jedi-language-server - A Python language server exclusively for Jedi. If Jedi supports it well, this language server should too.
