vim-vsnip VS friendly-snippets

I first started by reading some tutorials but most of those used parser combinators. For me, parser combinators always caused some issues sooner or later (at least in Lua when trying to parse recursive / nested nodes). An example project that uses this technique is vim-vsnip: https://github.com/hrsh7th/vim-vsnip/blob/master/autoload/vsnip/snippet/parser.vim. Later, I found out that Luacheck uses a different approach which I liked better: https://github.com/lunarmodules/luacheck/blob/master/src/luacheck/parser.lua. That's the project that helped me the most while writing my own parsers for different snippet engines.

This plugin could use it? hrsh7th/vim-vsnip

I am not a snippets expert, I don't even currently use snippets. However, I know that both LuaSnip and vim-vsnip can load these vscode style snippets. So my recommendation would be to get the snippets and use one of those two snippet plugins.

For autocompletion I use the nvim-cmp plugin. If you're not coding, it might be overkill. But during writing it helps me a lot, because it autosuggests words that I used in the current buffer, too. The most popular autocomplete plugins should be compatible with the most popular snippets engines like vim-vsnip.

Have you ever wondered how to have a snippet completion in VSCode so you can write Julia code fast but in Neovim? Fear not! vim-vsnip is the plugin you need. This plugin supports LSP/VSCode's snippet format. But first, you need to install cmp-vsnip for this plugin to be sourced to nvim-cmp. Oh btw, these three plugins: nvim-cmp, vim-vsnip, and cmp-vsnip → are made by the same person which is actually cool! If you want to support them, become a sponsor! (I am poor so I cannot sponsor yet 😔)

I believe you want the second variant. Then you should install some snippet plugin like vsnip or luasnip and config it with your completion engine.

https://github.com/hrsh7th/vim-vsnip says it supports vscode style snippets, so apparently you could use https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=kaffeine.advanced-drupal-8-snippets with that plugin.

I created an issue on the Github repo: https://github.com/hrsh7th/vim-vsnip/issues/233

You mean snippets? If yes, you can try Luasnip and friendly-snippets with nvim-cmp and here's the setup guide. Hope it helps

For example Luasnip with (I guess) friendly-snippets has multi line snippets defined by default. And you can use luasnip with nvim-cmp (read the docs or I guess there’s a YouTube tutorial)

I don't think it has? All my snippets are either from the language server or friendly-snippets, which is a plugin that comes with a bunch of them.

If you copied the config in the readme, then the snippet come from friendly-snippets.

ll is giving me these errors. Also in vim {{ would expand to \left{ \right}. It's not working with NeoVim. I'm using LuaSnip with friendly-snippets with the default config in NvChad.

As stated in LuaSnip docs, you need to install a snippets plugin, for example, https://github.com/rafamadriz/friendly-snippets

Here you don't need lsp-zero at all. Install luasnip and have it load the snippet collection you installed (I recommend friendly-snippets).

friendly-snippets: coleção de snippets de várias linguagens e frameworks.

Ahh I see now sorry. It could be that you are missing actually the snippet source. See here: https://github.com/L3MON4D3/LuaSnip#add-snippets I am personally using vs code snippets provided by friendly-snippets
