vim-mucomplete VS nvim-compe

If you don't mind using tags instead, a lighter alternative would be to use MUcomplete with the following settings:

You can use the mucomplete plugin, with the following settings:

You can use mucomplete plugin with built-in vim command completion (suggested by @Fantastic_Cow7272) added to completion chain

If you have a LSP client providing an omnicomplete function (such as vim-lsp), you can use mucomplete to enable "completion as you type". That setup is both Vim and Neovim compatible! :)

MUcomplete?

I use the mucomplete plugin, which makes Vim's builtin completions feel more Sublime-like.

Thanks for the suggestion. This set me on the right track - nvim-cmp didn't integrate well with my other plugins, but I found a very similar plugin called vim-mucomplete. Works out of the box and is equally minimal. Can also be configured for compatibility with stuff like UltiSnips.

There are plugins that may improve this experience for you, like supertab, vimcompletesme, or vim-mucomplete. You can find more completion plugins here.

There's a plugin, vim-mucomplete, that is built around combining some of the Ctrl-X bindings with, of which there are many. I used mucomplete to learn what all the various functions do and then uninstalled it, because I found the individual bindings easier to remember.

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 )
