This is just a recreation of what Dreams of Code did in his video. Because people were asking me about DAP so i just ported over what he did. But you know you can mix and match the 2 versions. You said pyright wasn't working. does it say the LSP is in the bottom right?

I haven't used rust in neovim yet but I am sure i could find a basic setup and show how to implement it, like the other languages. That way people can fine tune it for themselves.

@@ProgrammingRainbow I know that rustaceanvim is part of the party! but there are other things...

@@LinuxForLife So what is the LSP linter formatter and also treesitter files that need to be involved with your rust projects?

@@ProgrammingRainbow idk

@dino_source there is an official vs code addon for cppfront, the one herb mentioned. That's why I was in vs codium for this one instead of neovim.

@@dino_source marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=elazarcoh.cpp2-syntax

@@ProgrammingRainbow yeah, thanks so much! I didn't manage to find it in VS Code Extensions Marketplace (inside VS Code), so just downloaded and installed it manually using the following command: code --install-extension ~/Downloads/elazarcoh.cpp2-syntax-0.0.5.vsix

@ricardoruiz3248 If you have a look at my Neovim NvChad (Dreams of Code) video, I duplicate the old dreams of code video with dap all setup. It should be all the same for go or other languages only the final dap-python part would need to be changed.

@ricardoruiz3248 th-cam.com/video/m0OobzFjEKE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=i5sA9QxMELr7giZ2 at 23:40 I start to show how to setup dap. The only part that is python specific is the final dap-python part.

@AdityaYadav-jg9xw Both pygame and pygame zero are python bindings for sdl2. So you are already using SDL2. I would say if you're currently using PyGame to make a game, I would keep working on it in Python. There is nothing to lose by learning Python. But when you finish the project, you're working on if you're interested in another language. You could either rebuild the same game in another language or you could build a new project. If you watch my Pygame and C SDL2 beginners guide, you will see PyGame is working just as a Python implementation of SDL2. But I wouldn't tell someone to stop working on a project. It's better to finish it. Also, if you enjoy Python, then keep using it. However, if you're not enjoying it, then that would be a time to think of switching. This channel I try to try all different languages. But my first was Python and PyGame Zero, which I don't recommend, especially if you feel it's working against you. I went from having a hard time partially because it was my first experience. But then I used pygame. Its documentation was harder to understand at first but was easier to use. And then C and I had way more fun in C. However, there was almost no documentation that I understood, and it was all pointers, but it was easier for me at the time of my 3rd project to get into, and I just loved it. However, I hope that with the videos , I explain things that people can choose any language and understand how to get started and even understand the documentation a bit.

@AdityaYadav-jg9xw I would also love to see your project when it's finished. Don't worry if it's not a masterpiece, no ones is. But it would be nice to see and try out other people projects.

@@ProgrammingRainbow OK so for now i think i will continue on my project. The project isnt very special im just trying to make breakout replica, i have made space invaders,pong and some other basic stuff. I wanna make something like pydew valley.

@@ProgrammingRainbow ill make sure to update you once i start working on pydew project. do you have insta or a discord server where i can message you?

@AdityaYadav-jg9xw no I haven't set any social media up. But you can message me here or if you have a link to github or gitlab

@@iHapiW Thank you 😊

I think Mario took a large team of people a year or more to make. It wouldn't translate well to youtube. I used Firefox, so i had to look up the Chrome game. That is a much simpler game. I do have some games planned. The Yellow Snow game you can see in C or Lua, also Minesweeper, Tetris, Super Slock, Asteroids, and Conways Game of Life. Those will be future projects. But the dinosaurs game would not be hard to do.

@@ProgrammingRainbow Thank you. I've studied SDL2 from you in C++. I'd love more project videos.

@@ArnabJhaYT there will be more c++ as well. Buy you can always watch the c video

@@ArnabJhaYT Remember SDL2 is a C library. All other languages are interfacing with it directly as a C library or through a binding to the C library.

and GetWindowFlags returns a bit flag, so if you want to check if a specific flag is set in it you use the bitwise & operator: if (sdl.GetWindowFlags(game.window) & cast(u32)sdl.WINDOW_SHOWN) == cast(u32)sdl.WINDOW_SHOWN { // WINDOW_SHOWN is set }

@pietrovismara1698 yeah that was just a bit of code I added in to show what was happening. I was focused on the renderer. But the documentation and proc signature doesn't let you know it's optional.

@pietrovismara1698 Yeah, that's a fair solution. It was something that hadn't occurred to me before I filmed it. And I think it was midnight at the time

I'm new to TH-cam. I'm not monetized and actually don't even know how that works. It says i need 3000 hours of view time. But also i don't know what adds look like on youtube since i never see them. I would think youtube would automatically put ads in? But yeah I'm happy it was informative that is what I wanted when making these videos. I'm no expert but I think every bit of knowledge shared is helpful to the next person.

what version of neovim are you using? I just checked mine and I'm on 0.10.1. But I'm also on Arch BTW so if youre not on arch you may have an older version. What system and version do you have.

@@ProgrammingRainbow Iam on 0.9.8 in kali which it should be the latest

@@kodeq1 It looks like Kali Linux is debian testing branch? I'm not very sure about Kali. Debian is great for using old software and not updating things. This is good for servers but not for Desktop use with latest software. 0.10 has been out for about 6 months i think. So I am sure it will come to Kali but not sure about how long it will take. I was not able to find a simple solution for getting neovim on Kali that doesn't involve just compiling it from scratch. So i don't have a very good answer. It does appear that nvchad needs 0.10 but i am not sure the best way to get that onto Kali. I would ask if there is a specific reason you use Kali?

@@ProgrammingRainbow cyber security. I think i might be able to download nvim from github and get the latest version

What OS are you using and what Compiler are you using? Are you using the same options i am using?

I don't have Windows sorry i can't afford it.🤑 How about Zig or Nim? Also when i get enough confidence I am still holding back on Rust and Haskell.

@@ProgrammingRainbow I really need it for rust. i would appreciate ♥

C# is also on linux has been for more than 7 years

@health_doc Yeah Mono has been around for 20 years, but no one who's free of microsoft wants to use C#, especially in linux. .NET is a Windows world thing. Just because you can do a thing doesn't mean you should. The only other place C# is used is unity, and there is no longer is a good reason to use unity. I'm trying to train a neural network in C at the moment.

@@ProgrammingRainbow im not talking about mono.. if you prefer c over c# fine with me. It was a suggestion for a video

Thank you very much

Huh, okay, just found nvcheatsheet (cheat sheet for NvChad keymappings): <leader> + ch So no questions about Telescope navigation and keymappings anymore. The rest of my personal wish-list is still relevant, though.

I'm about to do a Beginners guide for Odin. I do have some stuff partially setup for C++ and Python i will try make some projects in those languages soon.

@@ProgrammingRainbow thanks! Sounds great!

@indigoalx2773 I don't know, but I wish the people with real knowledge would share it more often. I learned about this because people were asking about it.

Yeah i see it now. Python just ignored it and worked correctly anyway. That code is pretty bad though.

like this video? th-cam.com/video/upeAH74q0q4/w-d-xo.html

@user-mf1jj1bf2x I'm using a modified version of DTOS, which is a xmonad configuration on top of archlinux. It comes from the distrotube channel, and I think it's in this package gitlab.com/dwt1/wallpapers. It's Albert Einstein, but I don't think it's named that.

@OnTheBlank Yeah, my channel is still small enough that I reply to all comments. So I could bit shift or just do what I did by throwing away the first number. You lost me on the xor part. Im curious, How was my code and explanation? I'm really no expert in forth, I know it's probably not the most elegant, but I hope it was decent. May I also know if you have made any game or SDL2 project with it? I was thinking after some more small game projects we could run a game jam for forth.

@@ProgrammingRainbow There's a class or pseudorandom number generators based on shifts and bitwise operations. Xoroshiro and the "Xorshift" family of prngs are known for being implementable in a few lines of C code on embedded systems and being very good (better than Mersenne Twister which Matlab still defaults to despite its require a 2000 digit long prime for their implementation). Should be doable in a few lines of gforth as well. I myself am only getting started with gforth. My background is embedded firmware and electronics so I'm coming to gforth from having worked with systems with <1MB of ROM and <128KB of RAM. I'd be happy to try and contribute if someone wanted to try a simple game jam in gforth. I'd probably do some kind of a puzzle game. You could perhaps even do a Baba is You style game but in postfix notation with Forth words.

@@theweeb2591 Thank you so much

@thewhizhub5715 I updated it with Python a couple of days ago. It's in the repo. Just go into the configs folder and edit conform, treesitter, lspconfig, and lint lua files. Uncommented all the Python stuff. Anything I add, I have it commented out

Ok, don't really know my way around dap, however, I think i have it working. Please let me know if it's working as expect. I have added instructions to the bottom of the repo called Python (Dreams of Code) they are meant to be a port of his video. There is some changes but functionally it should be working just as his was. Hopefully. Could you try it out and let me know. Thanks.

@MikeMcGowan-y2b Wow yes your right. This is something I didn't know about. It seems nvchad has a remap. But this isn't vanilla neovim behaviour. But thanks for pointing this out.

@geekygiganerd It is nvchad. The nvchad plugins are implicitly pulled in when you first start nvim. This is how it's done from nvchad starter, the one you install straight from their repo. You are not meant to download nvchad directly.

look at nvchad/starter and also look at init.lua

@@ProgrammingRainbow hi just came here to say thanks. I could finally install this config using your repo.. the problem I was facing was due to the internet & I think partly due to my low end old PC, I used a codespace on GitHub to set it up first and then used some tactics to copy things to my pc and install the plugins properly. What a relief.

Yes you are correct. The clang-format is the recommended approach for large scale or advanced users. But this is meant to be very beginner friendly since that's kind of myself. So i want it to just work without having to make the file. I Talked about the same thing in my recent Super Clock for Love2D. I explained how to do it both way but then just hard coded it into my conform.lua because I'm kind of simple and basic lol. But yes you are right and it's good info for everyone. I wish i would have showed it both ways.

@opposites-369 If you check the github for the video, you will see it already has instructions for basic Python. Also, it's added to the config files just commented out.

@@ProgrammingRainbow yes I know, but when I tried to set up debugpy it was very difficult, I just started learning programming, & getting the right tools because my laptop only gives 4GB ram, 2 days ago I tried to configure for debugpy + DAP & DAP.UI, & I need PHPactor & need xdebug too, I'm just a beginner who hasn't learned programming at all, just looked at the structure of the language (lua) and tried a combination of existing ones according to the source but still failed, because what the examples & instructions given by the creator are the same Very different from what you apply, thank you in advance for your attention.🙏🏻👍🏻

@opposites-369 I have never used a debugger before. The linter or lsp should be what you need. Also, print debugging is the first thing I would reach for. Debugging is usually used for stepping through very low-level programming like assembly. I'm not sure why it would be used in Python. Is it required for a course? If not, I would skip all that and just write code. 4gb of ram is low, but it really depends on the OS. You can easily handle 4Gb in linux, especially with zram. Since linux can run a desktop with just 1Gb and zram, it can turn that 4gb to 8. However, Windows loves to eat ram. Windows needs 4gb at idle, and you will be hitting that page file hard destroying your ssd. When learning programming, especially your first language, try not to overload yourself. Don't try to do or learn too many things. Use whatever editor you feel comfortable with, and don't worry if you don't know how to use everything. Just enough to edit and run. Let the only thing you're learning be just the language. Follow some instructions or tutorials and then make some little projects, edit and modify them, and make it again or something else. What you find interesting will be the best. Don't overload yourself with learning everything at once. Also, don't ask on reddit or stackoverflow. They are toxic, and they will just mess you up. Facebook group may work or youtube like this. Use free chatgpt or bing chat for explaining concepts. Keep the questions focused and ask from different angles because llms are very powerful and very dumb. They also lie a lot. But they are good at explaining concepts.

@@ProgrammingRainbow thank you for the advice given, I use ArchCraft Linux with bspwm, I use nvchad because I believe nvchad is a much lighter tool compared to vscode, therefore I use the tool under the terminal, only if debugpy is available maybe one day I will use it, maybe what I really need is PHPactor which is more than enough, as a starting point for the programming language I want to learn, thank you for taking the time to pay attention to me, thank you also for the instructions via the very useful TH-cam channel, I wish you good health and long life, greetings from Indonesia 🙏🏻👍🏻

@@opposites-369 Thank you very much.

@Snowboardbound Thank you very much. This is one of my first videos. I had no idea how to stream or capture a mic or how to just talk and code. I start with a project I have made and break it into parts. Then I live streamed it. I edit the videos down, but really, I'm just removing empty spaces or fumbled sentences. When I make a mistake, I need to at least keep where I found the error and fix it, so anyone following will have the fix, too. Also, it is helpful to see mistakes. But I am getting less nervous. Also, I spent the last week learning krita better, and I recreated all my video cover art in svg. I also spent a couple days playing with my mic and trying different compression and eq settings to give a more natural sound. The latest NeoVim Golang should sound better. I'm learning this all as I go. I'm not sure if people realise but I don't use OBS or any capture card. I'm actually using just ffmpeg to capture the screen and a mic and sysyem sound. Ffmpeg splits the video into TH-cam twitch and a local file. So that crackling you hear when I close a game is the audio buffer underrun. But I think I have sorted it.

@@ProgrammingRainbow if this is one of your first videos then that’s amazing! It’s actually the first video I watched of you and the video and audio quality seems perfectly fine to me but it’s cool you’re working on making it even better. You definitely have a gift for teaching, this was very easy to watch and understand. Excited to check out more of your stuff

@Snowboardbound C was one of thr main reasons I wanted to make these because I found almost no helpful info when I was learning. Just people pointing to C++ content. I have a bunch of C projects planned.

@@NejatBJK Thank you so much

Thank you.

@The_Canadian_Engineer You don't need to clone the git repo. However you do need the image font and sound files. So you could download then as a zip or from git clone or even use your own. But a git clone or downloading as a zip or individually just to get those assets would be good.

Sorry i was sleeping when i replied. Conways Game of Life only relies on freesansbold.ttf and an icon image. you can simply omit the code that sets the icon image and download or get your own copy of the fonts that is the only files you actually need for this project.

@@ProgrammingRainbow Thanks so much for your help!

@green3216 Yeah I have been working on it.

In my NvChad-2.5 repo i have added some python support for syntax highlighting, LSP, Linting, and formatting. I am not sure how this will work with django but you can try it out and let me know. Its a basic setup for pyright, flake8, black and isort. Instructions are in the README.md and also the code is added to the configs but commented out for treesitter, lspconfig, lint, and conform.

@@ProgrammingRainbow OK, I'll give it a try soon. Thank you again.

Thank you so much. I am constantly learning how to make it better.

I had planned to do a video for each language as i figured it out. Your question just made me jump on C and C++ and try to figure it out.

@@ProgrammingRainbow Yes I see , that's why I respect u a lot , I really appreciate it and good luck in the next tutorials

​@@ProgrammingRainbowI just advice u to add chapters to ur videos to make it more organized and easy movement

Ok, I got things to work! I am using fedora as my linux distribution and this is what I had to install additionally. gcc-c++ SDL2-devel SDL2_image-devel SDL2_mixer-devel SDL2_tff-devel

@touka32able I'm happy to see people get some use out of these. I do have plans to make games with forth. I made Yellow Snow already. I had that game made for everything before I recorded my first video. Even Javascript Rust and Haskell. But I am still learning how to make videos and best explain things. Also, I make sure I understand the content, too. So trust me, I have so much content planned. I'm targeting at least 5 games in 7 to 10 languages. That's upwards of 50 projects with 3 to 10 videos in each. I have other ideas, too, but just focusing on getting those parts done first.

​@@ProgrammingRainbow I am excited for it! I have only recently discovered Forth and as a language it has really intrigued me. I'm currently building tetris on it, and your beginner guide series on SLD2 has been really helpful! Initially, I was doing everything through the terminal output using ascii characters. But thanks to you, with SLD accessible to me now, it really opens the door for graphical output and interfaces! The way you explain things I really enjoy, it radiates understanding of what you're talking about.

@johnmichaelechavez5979 Yeah let me have a look

I have some instructions for Golang on my NvChad page. If you would like to give them a try and let me know if it's works will or if there is issues. It has syntax highlighting, LSP, Linting, and formatting.

@@Programus-oy6yy is this a c or cpp file?

@@ProgrammingRainbow cpp file

@Programus-oy6yy You're using my old buggy version. In lspconfig, remove "client.server_capabilities.signatureHelpProvider = false" I would check the latest from github I changed several things before the video.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

The reason why i set up the lua is because neovim is configured in lua. So you need it installed no matter what language your programming in. It's also built in so i wouldn't remove them. But what i did was set it up so you can easily add other languages. If you go to the github page for this video and scroll down to the bottom you will see all the needed info on how to add C and Cpp with syntax highlighting, LSP, Linting and formatting. It's actually just some small add-ons. Most of the formatting code i added is because i prefer 4 spaces not 2. If you pull my repo you will also see that C and Cpp is already added but it's commented out in lspconfig treesitter and conform.

There is also my initial code for Yellow-Snow in C++ 20.

@@ProgrammingRainbow I get it, I will try fixing my issues.. thnks for everything 👍

@Skull-Kingler I'm using neovim it's a terminal based editor. I'm using a pre-configured version called NvChad. I have a video walking through how it's setup. If it's the color theme you like, it's called catppuccin and it should be available in vscode.

@@ProgrammingRainbow is Neovim Chad fast ? Can it be easily used like VS Code I mean install plugins and do no extra work for auto completions etc etc.. ?

@Skull-Kingler I don't think there is anything faster. It also is meant to be used without a mouse making you faster too since mouse and menus slow you down a lot. There is a big BUT, the kind Sir Mix Alot likes. It has a steep learning curve, and documentation is sparce. It's not a single tool but a collection of smaller tools working together. It's the Archlinux of editors. I'm no expert that is why I made a video explaining it so I myself can also remember how to use it 😅.

@@Kīīng-Skull I think the easy part is the big butt. It's all open source and all a bunch of separate projects with little or no documentation for the lay person. It is faster by far than VS Code hands down. Also i like it much more. It has Syntax highlighting, LSP, Linting and Formatting usually using the same plugins that VS Code uses. But it's not all packages up like VS Code is. Instead it's a puzzle with no instructions. So it can be frustrating. But if it's working and you are acclimated it's way better.

@@Kīīng-Skull Watch the Neovim - NvChad video and you can see all about it and how we configured it.

@@Kīīng-Skull Thank you so much.

I have added to the bottom of the nvchad-2.5 repo simple instructions for adding C support. It will give lsp, linting, and formatting with 4 spaces. Just follow that. I have also updated the nvchad config files in the repo to add it. But they are commented out. So if you like you can look at those 2 files or pull the repo. And just comment them.

​@@ProgrammingRainbowoh i saw them , thnks again and best of luck

Hey bro , The changes you made for c/cpp worked very good , but I faced some issues with the header of iostream , when I enter #include <iostream> i i got this warning >> Included header iostream is not used directly (fix available) and After that I remembered what you did with the same issue with lua and I did the same with clangd too by adding this changes inside of lspconfig.clangd.setup settings = { clangd = { diagnostics = { enable = false, }, }, }, and it worked good i no longer got warning about including iostream or any related lib i just wanna know if what I did is the correct job or maybe i will face some problems later ?

@Marckfederer The reason I disable diagnostics in the other one was because I was using a different package for linting. For C and Cpp the clangd is perfered. What happens when you simply remove the offending included? It may not be needed.

@@ProgrammingRainbow I commented out the added changes i made to test what you suggest and indeed everything worked well and all iostream , strings ... objs working very well .. in this case its normally to no needed for including iostream and other libs but the prob is if I want to run my program in terminal or in any ide i think i will get errors about not including libs , so i will need again to includ them .. its not good for me to do this each time I switch between nvim editor and compiler running... do you have any idea?

@tuirod8920 That's great to hear. I am setting up Minesweeper next with sprite sheet loading and all the themes. I'm using lua because I did a video showing nvchad and lua. All these games will be shown in other language's too, eventually. Just like how the beginners guide is in other languages. And Yellow Snow is in C also. But Minesweeper in lua is coming next. With themes, sizes, and difficulties options.
