>Java support with nvim is horrendous, especially if you have older java codebases, JDTLS doesn't work with a JDK under 21 I think? or was it 17?
To be honest it was a java 8 project so I won't blame them. It was a truly fucking horrible project written by fucking pajeets that left a fucking mess. fucking fucking fucking pajeets. fuck

>Debuggers are also a non-starter for java afaik.
I don't know. The best-in-class debugger I've ever seen was the Visual Studio (not code but the real deal) working on .NET. That shit even allowed to step-back and watch the trace. Haven't seen anything like that anywhere else and I've given gdb and pdb (for python) a spin. In VSCode once setup you can at least have breakpoints and a nice panel with the current stack and memory values

>In regards to compilation / starting I don't understand what you mean, are you trying to press a button like in intellij and have it build plus run rather than running a command in your terminal for whatever build tool your project has? (maven, gradle etc)
Again in vscode, you just type a json with the config you want (a la makefile) and will launch the project and attach the debugger with a single keystroke/click. But couldn't make it work on nv
