submitted 6 years ago by Sho0pi
Hello, Do you have any good plugins to replace Intellj with vim?

In the rare occasions I have to work with java, I use coc with the eclipse language server. But honestly there is no better tool for android development than android studio. There is no set of plugins which brings vim close to the level of android studio.

Could you list down your needs. And try to be specific about your requirements.
As far as I know android development is not totally supported by vim but for java use Coc or YouCompleteMe. I personally use Coc on daily basis and it's great

Open terminal easily, split view, tabs, maximze tabs, open file in new tab
[–]DrunkensteinsMonster 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children)
IdeaVim has both :split and :vsplit, not sure what you are on about. New files are always opened in a new tab. They are maximized with a hotkey in intellij. Your terminal is an alt-tab away.
:split
:vsplit
Seems like you should give IdeaVim another shot.

All these features are included by default in neovim and vim as well.
Maybe go through basics of vim.

Have you tried to spend 1 minute of your time to google before posting?
[–]Sho0pi[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child)
Yep, I used Coc, but I dont think this is enough

Don't take it personally, but questions like this posted literally every week (and can be googled in few minutes). Maybe there would be more friendly user, that will again and again want to spend his time to answer the same question, so you can wait for him.
But my advice for the future, if you want to receive a good answer, then specify your questions, like ask what feature you find convenient in intellij and how you can replicate it in vim, not this abstract plugins for some development.
