Vlang Language Server

[pro-nub]

Please consider prioritizing vls (the V Language Server). I believe the team behind such an innovative language is more than capable of delivering a high-quality server to match. In my view, V is one of the most well-designed languages available today—not just for its ease of use, but its performance. In my own benchmarks, I’ve found it to be on par with, or even faster than, Zig.

While the Vlang homepage does a great job highlighting the language's speed and excellence, there seems to be less focus on the language server. Even looking at the roadmap, it’s unclear when a stable version of vls will be ready. A reliable language server is vital for newcomers; it accelerates the learning curve and encourages adoption. I’ve spent significant time trying to set up vls in VS Code and Zed without success. Am I missing something, or is the server currently unstable?

I agree, it's very important. I'll make a release.

Thank you for the update! I’m incredibly impressed with what you’ve built so far; V is a remarkable language. A stable VLS will be a game-changer for the community. Appreciate all your hard work!

Glad you enjoy the language!

Looking forward to VLS becoming generally available, then integrating it into Zed.

It's available now, you just need to build it yourself.

It's not complete, yet, but it is available. I'm using it with zed.

Is this based on version 0.5? Replace vls with the latest version you have compiled yourself.

Did you use the Zed V plugin? Version 0.5 uses VLS, but even after replacing the latest VLS binary, it still cannot be used properly
