- winrid 4y agoIf I start typing newSeq, give me the option to auto import from std, etc. These little things add up. Also basic usage of generics doesn't really work w/ the vs code plugin, which is the best one.
- xigoi 4y ago> If I start typing newSeq, give me the option to auto import from std, etc. Good idea! I've made a proof-of-concept Neovim plugin: https://sr.ht/~xigoi/nvim-summon/ https://sr.ht/~xigoi/nvim-summon/ It wasn't difficult, so if you use a different editor, you can make one too (feel free to reuse my documentation scraper).
- winrid 4y agoNeat! But I pay for Clion, so I'm hoping they can prioritize this so I don't have to write plugins myself... :) We'll see when I start my next nim project, how I can contribute..
- winrid 4y agoI am considering betting my next big project on Nim. If it works out and I can work on it full time then I'll have lots of time to help Nim!
- winrid 4y agoNote - looks like generics do work, the issue was my file names had dashes in them. Evidently that is not supported, but I didn't get any errors :p
