I'm excited for this release! Built in nvim-lsp, treesitter support, better support for accessing vim internals from lua are all awesome additions. I've been using the nightly releases for a while and it has been great! I'm looking forward to seeing the larger community now have access to the stable release!

For people that are interested in knowing more, neovim is having a release stream on teej's twitch channel: twitch.tv/teej_dv.

I've seen a number of announcements but this is the first 'I'm excited!' post I've seen that includes any information about what is being added.

Strike that, not entirely true: there was one good post 37 days ago, "Neovim is overpowering", that I liked a lot[1].

What do folks these days use with vim-lsp to get an IDE-like experience? I’m wondering if it would be better than a coc/ccls setup.

I went back to coc from nvim's native lsp. I think the nvim lsp world needs another year to stabilize and mature. The default lsp configs are pretty rudimentary and make big assumptions like every project root is a git repo. You can't easily just have a project specific LSP configuration file like you can with coc. And installing each LSP is a real chore with various competing plugins instead of the easy built-in coc install commands.

Apart from some node issues early on, CoC has worked well for me. At some point I’ll try the native lsp, but it seems like a lot of setup, just to get back to where I already am.
