		nvarsj on April 28, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Rust-analyzer – an IDE backend for Rust The main problem I find is mixed language projects are not well supported like they are in Intellij. For example I'm working on projects using gradle and mixing Groovy and Java. In the past I was working on Scala/Java projects with sbt. None of these combinations are well supported by an LSP server. I think we need a polygot JVM LSP server that can support multiple languages and build tools seamlessly (just like IntelliJ can...).

Yes that is a weakness. My project for work is scala/java and it is not a good experience once Scala gets involved.

I've been hoping that the scala guys tackle this issue soon:
