Crystal: Crystal lacks IDEA tool support

Created on 11 Apr 2020  Â·  5Comments  Â·  Source: crystal-lang/crystal

Crystal lacks IDEA tool support, which makes crystal development very difficult, the existing tool can only be called code highlighting, official can not come up with a perfect IDEA tool, so that new people do not have to look around for code, crystal is a good language, which is lack ingested by a good IDEA support。 Thanks! I hope IDEA plugin will be introduced soon

Hi! There's been a lot of discussions about IDE support for Crystal. In short: it's very hard or impossible to support something like that. And this repository is about the language itself, and it's already a ton of work to do that. Maybe ask in the forums and the community can work on that. Thank you!

@j8r I don't think this is about a library...

Just because I feel like saying this, my username in reddit is the-asterite

Did you know Crystal has a certain "dynamic nature" to it?

@straight-shoota scry for instance is a library. Any IDE supporting LSP can benefit of completion, docs and other features.
