So you want to write Java in Neovim


I have been doing Java in Neovim for quite a while at work, and it’s been a very pleasant experience. As Neovim usage grows (especially amongst the younger crowd), I want to share how I do it.

I’ll preface this by saying that if Neovim isn’t your primary editor, you should first try an IDE specifically for Java (they should all have a Vim plugin): If Neovim is your primary editor, you probably hate opening *insert IDE that turns you into snail* for a specific language, and so did I. It attempts to be a comprehensive solution with popular defaults, and be hassle-free when it comes to LSP, debugging, testing setups.
