Neovim - Why I'm switching to Native LSP over CoC

• typescript-language-server

  TypeScript & JavaScript Language Server

  

JavaScript and TypeScript are still using typescript-language-server. I've been able to get auto imports working with compe.nvim and have figured out all the other features I care about, but the overall experience still lags behind CoC (and takes much more work to set up). In terms of suggestions, the experience is very similar, but code actions in particular are far worse.

  Sample neovim and vim configurations for Rust development

Interesting, then I don’t know what it is. I tried a few completion plugins and all variations of sharkforarm’s rust configs. Nothing is fast and I am on a Ryzen 7 4800H on kitty terminal. I even disabled most other plugins like gitgutter. And then currently all of a sudden my inlay hints are gone without changing anything in my init. Really frustrating. Maybe it is because of bigger project and larger dependencies. The expansion does not work for me in any of the native lsp completion plugins besides coc. No idea why. I even tried several of the snippets plugins but also does not work.

• diagnostic-languageserver

  16 404 1.6 TypeScript

  diagnostic language server integrate with linters

Aside from that, the biggest difference versus CoC is the ecosystem, which affects setup / tweaking time and code actions. I was able to set up ESLint diagnostics with diagnostic-languageserver, but it doesn't integrate with typescript-language-server at all, and I haven't been able to set up ESLint fixing + Prettier, either, All of that is trivial with CoC.

• nvim-compe

  Discontinued Auto completion Lua plugin for nvim

I only recently switched to it, so I might have missed something, but nvim-compe is fast and supports loads of different sources out of the box. No weird configuration, no "binding together". Just enable the sources you want in your init.vim / init.lua.
