I'm using this in neovim, but I will admit, it's not good enough yet that i can switch back from intellij.
the gd jump does work though

10/11/2023, 8:28 PMi have a bunch of cruft in my vimrc that probably doesn't make much sense anymore - i'm trying to slim it down to a useful set for just kotlin

10/12/2023, 3:49 PMi'd like to be able to get docstrings to render in the completion preview - i haven't dug into Coc-Kotlin to see if that's possible

10/12/2023, 3:50 PMI've gotten a bit further but jump to definition still not 100%

Levi
10/12/2023, 3:50 PMYeah I'm learning that 😩
Levi
10/12/2023, 3:51 PMI wanted to at least be able to have modal editing so when switching between vim and intellij it's not totally different
Levi
10/12/2023, 3:51 PMbut yeah it ain't great

10/12/2023, 3:51 PMwhat does work for you with neovim + coc-kotlin?
l
Levi
10/12/2023, 3:53 PMI'm actually not using coc-kotlin. I'm using mason + lsp-zero.nvim, etc
Levi
10/12/2023, 3:54 PMmaybe I'd have better luck with coc
Levi
10/12/2023, 3:54 PMthis has worked well for python, nim, etc.

10/12/2023, 3:55 PMah...my vimrc is ancient. i only recently switched to neovim. 🙃

Levi
10/12/2023, 3:55 PMSame actually

10/12/2023, 3:55 PMCoc has worked super well for me. i've never used mason or lsp-ero

01/16/2024, 10:55 AMIn your opinion, how is the Kotlin LSP server in neovim? Do you have experience with JetBrains products and can you make comparisons?
