The easiest neovim autocompletion setup?

Advent of Neovim :)

2:12 VERY IMPORTANT: Add blink.cmp as a dependency 'cause it can happen that it hasn't been loaded else.
(TJ did it, but didn't mention it)

I've been quite happy with nvim-cmp so far, but this looks excellent, I especially like the signature help sticking around while you're still filling out parameters! Looks like I'm tweaking my nvim config this evening!

[felipetrost]

Even though I've been using nvim for a while now, and I have gone through configuring most of the things you talk about myself, this series is super fun, and I'm learning stuff I didn't know.
props for the idea and the execution

[youngreda]

custom snippets next would be cool love the series!

[Djzaamir]

I think with every passing day TJ and prime are getting me one step closer to being a full time neovim user.

[mohansella]

Really helpful. I use nvim-cmp so far but its configuration was the hardest that i experienced in nvim plugins :(

[Shafti-Code]

its day 3 of configuring nvim by myself by modifing primes"0 to lsp" video, mr tj this shit so fire please continue this series ive never seen someone get to the point while also sharing necessary knowledge and educating people on the topic of vim, thank you very much

[smithshelke]

Thanks TJ. Its all thanks to you and prime (mostly you) that i am able to do my daily job using neovim. I really enjoy using nvim. Its rabbithole is my escape from stress.

The other day I said "I'll need to look into blink soon", started looking into it today and then this video goes live 😂 Thanks again my man!😊

[nemethda]

"if you want you can do these other ones, but you're wrong.. that's okay" 🤣 but WOW the signature help is a game changer thanks so much Teej, I love this series!!

[Kaikaci]

I switched to blink two days ago and it's wonderful

[whenrow]

I love how Teej is doing the videos faster than the previous one. I'm very hyped to be on 25th :D

[tridibbiswas]

Hey TJ, you have been my teacher in past few years in learning what I know of neovim. Could you share a video on what’s the difference with vim 0.11 autocomplete options to the previous and should we still need to have something like blink or cmp to enable autocomplete

[Teslacoil]

I know I'm "wrong", but trying to use CTRL Y whilst using CRTL N, CTRL P to cycle between autocomplete options is just awkward on my fingers. I think it's the transition of my right index finger from the "N" key to the "Y" key which feels like such a huge jump. Most of the time I'll be cycling forward through these options with CTRL N and then it's trivial for my right pinky to just give that Enter key a quick little tap. Maybe it's just the years of muscle memory. Maybe one day I'll transition, but it is not this day!

This series would've helped me so much an year ago

[sventi]

Hey TJ, Awesome video! I tried setting this up, but I'm not getting automatic completion for vim api methods in lua files... Is there something in your lsp config or some other completion source that you're using to get those completion suggestions? Thanks!!

[rkdeshdeepak]

the defaults in commands mode are C-n C-p with this, which not the case for neovim default

[stefan_luptak]

Is there a typo in capabilites vs. capabilities at 1:57?

[miyalys]

Don't know if this is a good suggestion for a topic, or really possible, but I'm quite curious about suggestions on what doesn't need to go in the config or ways to clean it up.
Fx. things that used to be relevant to use plugins for, but which is now handled natively by neovim in a better way.
Fx. it seems I don't really need vim-highlightedyank anymore as Neovim can handle this natively just by setting an option.

Let's get right to it - love that
