  • coc.nvim

    Nodejs extension host for vim & neovim, load extensions like VSCode and host language servers.

    I'm moving from coc.nvim to built-in LSP and thereby considering changing from UltiSnips to some other snippet plugin, preferably one written in Lua. I've found two different ones: snippets.nvim and LuaSnip. Is there anyone with more experience with either of them that can say whether they are mature enough yet to be used. Or do you recommend some other snippet plugin written in VimL?
