ale

A similarly useful list is vim's famous ALE plug-in's list of supported linters: * https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/blob/master/supported-... While less comprehensive¹, this is my go-to list when I start working with a new language. Just brew/yum/apt installing the tool makes it work in the editor² ¹this list mostly has foss,static analyzers, however anyone can contribute (mine was the gawk linting) ²alright, there are some tools that might need some setup

Ctrl-X Ctrl-L is line based completion, see :help CTRL-X_CTRL-L for details. :help ins-completion gets the useful docs, Vim's own docs are very good and worth spending some time learning how to use, so you can learn Vim itself better. Another favorite of mine is 'gf' to open the filename under the cursor, very useful combined with ^X ^F. Omni completion is also useful: https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Omni_completion although you're better off with plugin that uses LSP now, for example https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale

FWIW, I still use regular vim with ale [0] and it does everything I want. It formats files with Black and isort, shows ruff and pyright errors, supports jumping to definitions, and has variable information available on hover. It also does this for every other language I write in. I have collected my config over the past several years, but I pretty rarely encounter errors with it. It requires no additional dependencies except for the language tools themselves (Black, ruff, etc.).

I use vim for C++ coding, however it is a bit difficult to set up to make it productive. I use YouCompleteMe [0] for autocompletion, Vimspector [1] with the C++ plugin for debugging, ALE [2] for linting, along with a few other general plugins (such as NerdTREE for file view).

I typically use mypy. It's been around for over a decade, is available in many package repos, and has pretty good integration with vim lint plugins such as ALE (https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale).
