digitalmars.D - Anyone using Neovim?

I added Neovim to the Vim entry on this wiki page:
https://wiki.dlang.org/Editors

I wanted to do that in case someone searches for Neovim editor 
support for D. I don't use either Neovim or Vim, and honestly 
don't know anything about either, so please add any additional 
information if there's some special Neovim support beyond what's 
available for Vim.

I have been using NeoVim since probably 2016, but I never found 
the need to install anything related to D, or any other 
programming language, except for syntax highlighting.

One of the value propositions of NeoVim, compared to other editor 
(plugins) that try to imitate vim is that most (all before vim 
8?) vim plugins work out of the box for NeoVim as well.

I use https://github.com/JesseKPhillips/d.vim, but I haven't 
tried DSnips, Dutyl or anything that integrates a LSP, or DCD.

I'm using neovim in combination with the LSP plugin "Coc.vim" and 
the Language Server "dls"
- coc.vim https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim
- dls https://github.com/d-language-server/dls

This way, I get Code-completion, documentation, symbol lookup and 
more, I currently can't remember :) It runs very stable, and is 
well maintained.

Before Neovim I was very happy with dls in combination with 
VSCode.
