Expected Behaviour
When I visit this repo to install the LSP for Neovim, I want helpful, straightforward instructions.
Actual Behaviour
The Readme directs to someone's blog post tutorial which relies on an opinionated tool called Mason which I prefer not to have in my system.
Reproduction steps
- View the readme at https://github.com/LuaLS/lua-language-server
- Observe the only provided resource for setting up the LSP with NeoVim is https://dev.to/vonheikemen/getting-started-with-neovims-native-lsp-client-in-the-year-of-2022-the-easy-way-bp3
- Read the blog post, which provides information not relevant for integrating the LSP with an existing configuration that does not already use mason.nvim.
Additional Notes
Hello! Thought I could offer some useful feedback that the existing install guide for NeoVim, while useful to people starting from scratch or people who use Mason.nvim, doesn't really do a good job of covering the general case, and I would have hoped that my experience installing the LSP were more straightforward.
The blog post could be useful as a secondary resource, but I think as a primary resource, redirecting the reader to https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/server_configurations.md#lua_ls would be much more useful.
