vim-illuminate VS nvim-dap

The vim-illuminate plugin offers the goto_next_reference() and goto_prev_reference() to navigate to next/previous reference of the word under the cursor.

vim-illuminate (https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate) might be what you're looking for. It also has Alt-N/Alt-P mappings by default for jumping between matches.

You can add a prefix that's specific to your plugin, or just have a single field specific to your plugin's name which takes a table. Alternatively, in one of my plugins I use .configure strictly for configuration, which doesn't init the plugin, see https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate/issues/112. The majority of configuration shouldn't be needed though if you have strong defaults, just look at tpope plugins.

Found it, vim-illuminate.

I think you're looking for vim-illuminate.

Does it do anything different from illuminate?

Ok, my guess is that you are using RRethy/vim-illuminate, xiyaowong/nvim-cursorword, or mini.cursorword. All of them use underline as default highlighting for word under cursor. And that you tried ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim variant of Gruvbox, which doesn't explicitly support none of them.

setup is deprecated, use the opts table directly. Related stuff. Note that Leap is internally lazy-loaded anyway.

There are DAP extensions for both Vim (e.g. https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector) and NeoVim (https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap). I can't speak as to the experience in detail (I think I briefly played with nvim-dap a year or two ago), but I suspect that for most it will be good enough.

Also, you can set up debugger integration with https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap .

You could use nvim-dap with nvim-dap-python.

I'd suggest starting with a Neovim distro that makes things work for you and as you get familiar you can transition to a more custom configuration as you see fit. If you want to do it by yourself then the most popular plugin for debugging in Neovim is nvim-dap and there is also an extension for Python to give you a more ready to go config instead of doing it yourself. You should read the docs of those 2 to see how you should customize accordingly your configuration.

(neovim only) nvim-dap

https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap + https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text should be able to do it, I think?

If you want to debug types in TypeScript, you could use marilari88/twoslash-queries.nvim. If you would like to debug TypeScript/JavaScript code, then you need mfussenegger/nvim-dap, you could read this article: Debugging using DAP to understand how to set up it.
