What steps did you take to publish your language server for use in other editors besides Visual Studio Code? #14

I'm looking to do something similar, and I think I have almost the same setup as you, with client and server subdirectories, and the VSCode LSP example as a template. I'm not sure how to take the language server I think I have basically living in a server subdirectory, and "export", or "publish" that so can we use it with other LSP-compliant editors like Vim.

In this case you need to exchange messages through stdin/stdout and create some kind of CLI for your server. Here's some related code:

Sorry about that. I usually look for the Discussions tab, first, but the repositories I've been looking at relatively recently don't have them, so I got into the habit of going straight to the "Issues" section to ask questions.

I just opened a Discussion for a new topic that's not heavily related to this one.
