vscode-nim VS treesitter-unit

You may fare better hooking VSCode to nimlangserver:

https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim#nim-lanugage-server-integ...

nimlangserver is an implementation of Language Server Protocol with the goal to make nim IDE experience more mature. The main difference between nimlangserver and the existing nimlsp is that nimlangserver runs nimsuggest in a separate process and that nimlangserver is using a newly introduced version of nimsuggest v3(see bellow). nimlangserver is currently integrated in VScode via vscode-nim and in Emacs via lsp-mode but adding integraion with other editors should be trivial.

admittedly the editor support is far away from perfect, but that particular issue just sounds like https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/issues/80

To all those wondering about IDE support , the actively maintained VSCode extension is :

https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim

The default extension suggested by VSCode which have over 43k downloads in un-maintained for Eons and it won't work.

@dom96 can you pin this somewhere on the forum or website ?

UPDATE: improved highlighting rules you would get this code highligting more details https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/issues/49

It's also relatively easy to write plugins based on the parsed AST. I wrote treesitter-unit[1] making it easy to select/modify the subtree of the selection.

I built a plugin to select units of tree-sitter objects https://github.com/David-Kunz/treesitter-unit

To delete/yank the node, the combination would be `diu`, using this plugin: https://github.com/David-Kunz/treesitter-unit

Hi, I also think treesitter-textobjects are a bit overspecific, that's why I created https://github.com/David-Kunz/treesitter-unit/ .

In this video I create a Neovim plugin called 'treesitter-unit' using Lua. You can find the final plugin here: https://github.com/David-Kunz/treesitter-unit/

I tried it with operator mode maps and it works perfectly! I updated the README to include: vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('o', 'x', ':lua require"treesitter-unit".select()', {noremap=true})
