I only use it on macOS but things always change and are breaking. It DOES work though and offers a good deal of functionality, at least all the important stuff. This is more of a build problem for you though right? I know it’s not a standalone thing and relies on Lazarus but what realistically are you going to do? Already CodeTools is a massive project and I wouldn’t want to recreate that just to for easier building. Then you need to keep it updated for every new change the compiler makes, which no one has time for. I wonder how other new compilers handle this. I think unless the compiler itself has a “quick” mode for LSP’s you’ll need a whole other program which knows the syntax and isn’t in sync with the compilers parser/type checking etc…
