State of Neovim LSP configuration

1. volar

   1 32 4,244 9.9 TypeScript

   Discontinued ⚡ Explore high-performance tooling for Vue [Moved to: https://github.com/vuejs/language-tools]

   

   This is maybe my spoiled opinion as someone from strange lands coming in and being a bit confused: but why isn't there a community push to create "plugins", just like CoC, to create more of an out-of-the-box experience when setting up neovim? If three different web-developers needs to copy paste the same three language servers to get volar(a vue3 language server) up and running, why isn't there already a plugin doing most of the heavy lifting with saneish defaults which everybody uses?

3. nvim-lspconfig

   2 530 11,735 9.8 Lua

   Quickstart configs for Nvim LSP

   

   But with the native lsp setup, you might only lspconfig for configuring a variety of LSP servers with sane defaults. Have a look at volar config. And if you also want to install LSP server via neovim, then https://github.com/williamboman/nvim-lsp-installer. null-ls.nvim is also worth mentioning

4. nvim-lsp-installer

   3 82 2,022 9.7 Lua

   Discontinued Further development has moved to https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim!

   nvim-lspconfig contains reasonable defaults for various LSPs, but it doesn’t manage the actual installation of those servers. For that you want https://github.com/williamboman/nvim-lsp-installer. With those two plugins installed I can just do :LspInstallInfo to pick a known LSP to install/update/remove and nvim-lspconfig automatically handles setup & config. They basically work together to do what :CocConfig does.

5. coc.nvim

   4 322 24,799 9.6 TypeScript

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

   

   I'm coming from CoC.nvim and have gotten used to the way of "ease" of installing language server extensions. As for the configuration you'll need, it's minimal at worst. Open up :CocConfig and type away.

6. lsp-zero.nvim

   5 132 3,989 7.8 Lua

   A starting point to setup some lsp related features in neovim.

   

   Now, creating plugins that configure other plugins is not very common. We don't have a good dependency management story. I only know of two plugins that do it. Funny enough, I'm the author one of those (lsp-zero). It's doing well but I don't think is going to win any popularity contest on this subreddit.

    Discontinued Use Neovim as a language server to inject LSP diagnostics, code actions, and more via Lua.

    But with the native lsp setup, you might only lspconfig for configuring a variety of LSP servers with sane defaults. Have a look at volar config.
