How to use clangd C/C++ LSP in any project

How to use clangd C/C++ LSP in any project

tl;dr: If you want to just know the method, skip to How to section

Clangd is a state-of-the-art C/C++ LSP that can be used in every popular text editors like Neovim, Emacs or VS Code. Even CLion uses clangd under the hood. Unfortunately, clangd requires compile_commands.json to work, and the easiest way to painlessly generate it is to use CMake.

For simple projects you can try to use Bear - it will capture compile commands and generate compile_commands.json. Although I could never make it work in big projects with custom or complicated build systems.

But what if I tell you you can quickly hack your way around that, and generate compile_commands.json for any project, no matter how compilcated? I have used that way at work for years, originaly because I used CLion which supported only CMake projects - but now I use that method succesfully with clangd and Neovim.

Elm Json.Decode tutorial and cheatsheet

When receiving JSON data from other resources(server API etc), we need Json.Decode to convert the JSON values into Elm values. This gist let you quickly learn how to do that.

I like to follow working example code so this is how the boilerplate will look like:

import Graphics.Element exposing (Element, show)
import Task exposing (Task, andThen)
import Json.Decode exposing (Decoder, int, string, object3, (:=))

import Http
