Hi folks,

I have released vim9ls.
https://github.com/h-east/vim9ls

vim9ls is a language server for Vim9 script and legacy Vim script, run
by Vim itself.

vim9ls is written in Vim9 script and runs in a Vim of its own, so it
answers from what that Vim knows: its builtin functions, options and
commands, its help files, and the plugins you already have. A new
function or option is there as soon as Vim has it, since nothing is
copied out of Vim. Nothing else needs to be installed.

The diagnostics are Vim's own. The script is read with :source ++dryrun,
which runs nothing in it and compiles its :def functions, so what is
reported is what Vim finds in the script, not what another parser
guesses.


As for the LSP client Vim plugin, I recommend lsp.vim.
