So, it's an IDE? For what language(s)

[-] magikmw@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

It's a text editor.

I use it like I use notepad ++ on Windows.

Looks like for everything there is plugins and lsp support for. Like vsc but not Microsoft.

It's a feature-rich text editor with LSP support. I suppose you could use it as a simple IDE, though I haven't tried it.

@lambda @cullmann
It is pretty powerful. We use it in RKWard (GUI/IDE) for #rstats.

It supports many languages. Have a look at https://kate-editor.org/.

It supports many languages and it has LSP and DAP support. As long as there is a language server and debug adapter binaries, Kate should pick them up and work with the language. And if there's no default config, you can add your own.
