I've tried using neovim for C++ dev but keep ending back in either vscode with intellisense or YCM on Vim. I don't know if I'm just misconfiguring things but I haven't been able to get autocomplete working correctly. Any tips?
You'll need to configure clangd or ccls correctly with neovim's lsp, which in turn requires your build chain to be clean. It's definitely a huge time sink. Feel free to email me if you have specific issues!
I was doing a school project in c++ and I tried configuring ccls but in the end I just gave up and did the project without LSP. Like you said it came with some prebuilt tooling and ccls did not feel particularly beginner friendly to get working as I am not familiar at all with the c++ toolchain.
It (mostly) worked out of the box in another project with only some minor quirks though
I've also tried using vim/neovim etc. several times but had the same problem. Recently I've tested lunarvim and autocomplete worked out of the box (with Go).
