LTEX LS
LTeX Language Server: LSP language server for LanguageTool
LTEX LS (LTEX Language Server) implements a language server according to the Language Server Protocol (LSP) and provides grammar and spelling errors in markup documents (LATEX, Markdown, etc.). The documents are checked with LanguageTool. Typically, you start the language server (either locally or remotely), you send the language server your LATEX or Markdown document, and it will respond with a list of the grammar and spelling errors in it. To use LTEX LS in this way, you have to use a language client (usually an editor or an extension of the editor) that communicates with LTEX LS according to the LSP. However, it is also possible to supply LTEX LS paths to files and directories to be checked as command-line arguments. In this mode, LTEX LS will print the results to standard output, and no language client is necessary. -

csharp-ls
Roslyn-based LSP language server for C#
This is a hacky Roslyn-based LSP server for C#, as an alternative to omnisharp-roslyn. csharp-ls requires .NET 7 SDK to be installed. However, it has been reported to work with projects using older versions of dotnet SDK, including .NET Core 3, .NET Framework 4.8 and possibly older ones too as it uses the standard Roslyn/MSBuild libs that Visual Studio & omnisharp does. csharp-ls implements the standard LSP protocol to interact with your editor. However there are some features that need a non-standard implementation and this is where editor-specific plugins can be helpful. Supports automatic installation, go-to-metatada (can view code from nuget/compiled dlls) and some additional features. -
16
Ansible Language Server
Ansible Language Server
This language server adds support for Ansible. Ansible keywords, module names and module options, as well as standard YAML elements are recognized and highlighted distinctly. Jinja expressions are supported too, also those in Ansible conditionals (when, failed_when, changed_when, check_mode), which are not placed in double curly braces. While you type, the syntax of your Ansible scripts is verified and any feedback is provided instantaneously. On opening and saving a document, ansible-lint is executed in the background and any findings are presented as errors. -
17
Elixir Language Server
A frontend-independent IDE "smartness" server for Elixir
Implementing features such as auto-complete or go-to-definition for a programming language is not trivial. Traditionally, this work had to be repeated for each development tool and it required a mix of expertise in both the targeted programming language and the programming language internally used by the development tool of choice. The Elixir Language Server (ElixirLS) provides a server that runs in the background, providing IDEs, editors, and other tools with information about Elixir Mix projects. It adheres to the LSP, a standard for frontend-independent IDE support. Debugger integration is accomplished through a similar VS Code Debug Protocol. These pages contain all the information needed to configure your favorite text editor or IDE and to work with the ElixirLS. You will also find instructions on how to configure the server to recognize the structure of your projects and to troubleshoot your installation when things do not work as expected. -

Python LSP Server
Fork of the python-language-server project
Fork of the python-language-server project, maintained by the Spyder IDE team and the community. A Python 3.7+ implementation of the Language Server Protocol. The base language server requires Jedi to provide Completions, Definitions, Hover, References, Signature Help, and Symbols. Like all language servers, the configuration can be passed from the client that talks to this server (i.e. your editor/IDE or another tool that has the same purpose). The details of how this is done depend on the editor or plugin that you are using to communicate with python-lsp-server. The configuration options are available at that level are documented in CONFIGURATION.md. Overall configuration is computed first from user configuration (in home directory), overridden by configuration passed in by the language client, and then overridden by configuration discovered in the workspace. -

cquery
C/C++ language server supporting multi-million line code base
C/C++ language server supporting multi-million line code base, powered by libclang. Emacs, Vim, VSCode, and others with language server protocol support. Cross-references, completion, diagnostics, semantic highlighting, and more. cquery is a highly-scalable, low-latency language server for C/C++/Objective-C. It is tested and designed for large codebases like Chromium. cquery provides accurate and fast semantic analysis without interrupting workflow. cquery implements almost the entire language server protocol and provides some extra features to boot. cquery is able to respond to queries quickly because it caches a huge amount of information. When a request comes in, cquery just looks it up in the cache without running many computations. As a result, there's a large memory overhead. For example, a full index of Chrome will take about 10gb of memory. If you exclude v8, webkit, and third_party, it goes down to about 6.5gb. -
22
nixd
Nix language server, based on nix libraries
This is a feature-rich nix language server interoperating with C++ nix. -
23
ALE
Check syntax in Vim/Neovim asynchronously and fix files
ALE is an asynchronous linting and fixing engine for Vim and Neovim that keeps feedback flowing without blocking your editor. It runs external linters and formatters in the background as you type or save, streaming diagnostics into the sign column and statusline. The project focuses on breadth and practicality: dozens of languages work out of the box, and configuration is usually a matter of selecting tools you already use on the command line. ALE can also act as a lightweight Language Server Protocol client, providing go-to-definition, hover, and code actions through LSP servers when available. Its fix-on-save pipelines and formatter integration help enforce team style guides reliably and repeatably. For large codebases and slower linters, ALE’s job queueing and smart debouncing prevent UI hiccups while still surfacing timely results. -
24
Astro Language Tools
Language tools for Astro
This repository contains all the editor tooling required for the Astro language (.astro files). Notably, it contains an implementation of the Language Server Protocol (LSP) which as of now is used for the official VSCode Extension but could also be used to power a plugin for your favorite IDE in the future. This repository is a monorepo managed through Turbo, which means that multiple packages are in this same repo (packages folder). The official VS Code extension for Astro. This enables all of the editing features you depend on in VSCode for .astro files. -
25
D Language Server
A Language Server implementation for D
This is still a work in progress; there might still be bugs and crashes. DLS implements the server side of the Language Server Protocol (LSP) for the D programming language. It doesn't do much itself (yet), and rather uses already available components, and provides an interface to work with the LSP. DLS is usable using FreeBSD's Linux binary compatibility system (tested on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE). Code completion, going to the symbol definition, finding references, symbol renaming. Error checking, code formatting (document, range and on-type), symbol listing (current document and workspace-wide). Symbol highlighting, documentation on hover, random, frustrating crashes.
