Language Server Implementation #42

Open emuell opened 2 months ago

Thanks for the great project!

I really like the erde syntax. It fixes exactly all those little things that make Lua annoying to write for me.

Is a language server implementation planned for erde? Maybe LuaLS could be extended or forked to ease such an implementation?

Apropos: I've just found the vscode extension here. Probably wouldn't hurt to put the link to the site somewhere as well to make it easier to find.

Thanks for the compliment!

I would perhaps like to make a language server at some point but am currently focused on another project and not sure if / when I would have the time / energy, especially because it would be a huge endeavor (even if it was just forked).

It may happen at some point, especially if more people are interested / start using Erde, but I would say unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future (sorry about that).

As for the vscode extension, good point that its not very well advertised, I totally forgot about that :sweat_smile: I'll add a section for editor support somewhere on the site this weekend!
