Neovim tutorial, Documentation contribution

[spiral narwhal]

Hello,

I had a wonderful support regarding enabling JuliaFormatter.jl and StaticLint.jl on Neovim here. I want to contribute by updating Tools section with a new tutorial for configuring Neovim with Julia's LSP.

Are there any guidelines? Is there a specific moderator I should contact? Contribute page has no guidelines for documentation contribution.

@spiral narwhal hi. your contribution to julia is not limited btw. the page includes

Documentation
Create new documents: Write new sections of existing documentation, docstrings, and tutorials.
Improve existing documents: Update outdated documentation, fix typos and broken links.
I will discuss this with you once Github stops rate-limiting neovim plugin repos. (i guess ppl love to Lazy sync all the time)

I don't want to create a neovim plugin, but rather well document on Julia's wiki so that people learn foundations

Vim is based on Do-it-yourself design philosophy

[abstract lodge]

the website or the LanguageServer.jl wiki? i am not too sure where

[spiral narwhal]

Julia's website

it's the first portal anyone checks

[abstract lodge]

and what part of the website? the Contribute page? like add neovim?

[spiral narwhal]

That's what the main website recommends:

https://julialang.org/contribute/#tools

[abstract lodge]

can you give me again some context? yes it recommends julia-vim but how is this related to neovim? julia-vim plugin is redundant when you use nvim-lspconfig.

https://github.com/julia-vscode/LanguageServer.jl/wiki is this not sufficient?

[spiral narwhal]

that's what we need to contribute

Do you recommend it?

Those did not work with me

I feel it deserves more documentation

[abstract lodge]

i guess that needs to be updated. even my contribution to the wiki was 3 years ago

[abstract lodge]

i mean you can always edit and update it

[spiral narwhal]

So I just push request the repo

[abstract lodge]

1. you fork first
2. create a branch
3. start doing changes
4. PR to upstream

[spiral narwhal]

I know these ..

[abstract lodge]

for the Wiki, you just edit it.

youre open to edits. it's a Wiki after all

[spiral narwhal]

we won't do anything on Julia's main website?

won't add a link for neovim, for example?

[abstract lodge]

tbh i dont see the need to? well personally for me i dont need to. i havent looked at the website for the documentation as i believe something like this is documented in the editor itself and LSP is language-agnostic so you just have to put it there. but if you think it's worth the effort, then go for it.

[spiral narwhal]

How do I send the website moderators?

[abstract lodge]

send what?

[spiral narwhal]

adding a link for neovim

[abstract lodge]

i thought you know that?

[spiral narwhal]

on the main website ?

[abstract lodge]

1. you fork first
2. create a branch
3. start doing changes
4. PR to upstream

just add the link

[spiral narwhal]

this is the repo

I mean modifying Julia's homepage website

[spiral narwhal]

modifying listed tools

[abstract lodge]

that's what i mean? i already sent you the github repo

https://github.com/JuliaLang/www.julialang.org

[spiral narwhal]

I will keep you updated

all credits shall go to you
