   One of the places where rust-analyzer is ahead of the JetBrains Rust support is showing the size and alignment of types. I'm hoping that this is one thing that RustRover gains quickly. #Rust

     @wezm wow, what an awesome feature, and it also works with neovim's LSP client!

     Now I want it also in clangd...

     Is that Konsole I see? And a pop-up hint inside a terminal? What black magic is this!?

     Seriously, didn't know this was possible. I'm trying it out *tomorrow*!

     @codrusofathens @wezm Yes, it's Konsole, and that's nvim-cmp with more config glue I'd like to admit 😁

     @partizan @wezm @codrusofathens any sufficiently advanced neovim configuration is indistinguishable from magic 👍

     I tried various full-IDE plugins and modular frameworks, but in the end I kept using my curated list of smaller plugins 🍒

     Integrating nvim-cmp with LSP servers for the languages I use took too much research and fine-tuning, but now that it's done I'm happy with the UX.

     @wezm @codrusofathens @codewiz and if you want to go a little further, there's #neovide, which takes this terminal-based UI to next level with smooth scrolling and animations...

     @codrusofathens @codewiz it's a popup in Neovim. Still all terminal based but it has the concept of floating windows. https://neovim.io/doc/user/api.html#api-floatwin

     @PacoVelobs @wezm Oh, I meant showing the size and alignment of types on hover.

     @codewiz @wezm You can make it work for C/C++ with a little help. For example, CMake can generate what the LSP needs (classes, dependencies etc) to work on a C/C++ code base.
     I made it work for a friend in less than 15 minutes, it's worth the effort.
