One notable exception is Go with its [vim-go](https://github.com/fatih/vim-go https://github.com/fatih/vim-go) plugin, which feels very mature to me as someone new to the language.

- deadbunny 6y agoCoC is already there: https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim
- blandflakes 6y agoHaving to install node.js for a language server client is sort of a downer. For this reason I've been eagerly awaiting the built-in client in neovim, though it's definitely less polished and feature-complete than CoC today.
- deadbunny 6y agoIsn't the "built in" neovim language server lua? I personally can't see much difference between having to install nodejs runtime Vs the lua runtime.
- igneo676 6y agoThe difference is that the lua runtime is embedded (and wicked fast) into Neovim vs nodejs that has to go over the remote plugin interface
- deadbunny 6y agoFair enough. I've been using coc for a while now and can't say I've ever had any speed issues that I've noticed. But if the neocvm language server is built in and "as good" as CoC then that'll be one less plugin I'll need to install when it's ready.
- blandflakes 6y agoYeah I don't have any node.js speed concerns for it, I just would like to have the simplest editor microservice architecture, and putting the client to a service in a service was a bridge further than I wanted.
- ogre_codes 6y agoCoC looks neat (installing right now), but it's a perfect example of what I mean. Having to poke through and add several dozen lines to my config file to get it working. I would love to have this functionality with just brew install ts-vim And just be done with it.
- sooheon 6y agoI don't use vscode that much, but when I was checking it out I installed some extension which lets you edit text with true neovim (point it to a bianry) while vscode handles chrome and code understanding. Worked pretty well.
- GrantZvolsky 6y agoYou're probably talking about Neo Vim[1] by Alexey Svetliakov. I can't recommend this one enough for a (neo)vim experience in VS Code. It is relatively new and deserves a lot more attention.

- sooheon 6y agoYeah that’s the one. Love that it’s not a half baked vim emulation.
