Vim Javascript?

Calvin_Flegal · February 24, 2014, 5:57pm

I’ve forked dotfiles, I’m now down with tmux and the rest of the party. I’ve found writing javascript frustrating. I was wondering if there are any particular techniques or plugins used for doing things like auto-adding closing parens and curly braces and placing the cursor in the natural position? I’m guessing one answer I’m given might be “coffeescript”?

I have gotten a pretty decent setup for javascript in vim

Some useful plugins/tools

YouCompleteMe for autocomplete
delimitMate for automatic brace insertion
esformatter for indentation
tern for enhanced autocomplete sources

Check out my dotfiles here

See here for installation instructions for tern & node.js

.tern-project

{
    "libs": [
        "browser",
        "underscore",
        "jquery"
            ],
        "plugins": {
          "node": {}
        }
}

.vimrc

In order to get node.js completion with tern, you will need a `.tern-project` file. A sample file is included below.

# Installation

Place the `.tern-project` file inside your project directory. You can also have a global `~/.tern-project` file located in your home directory
