Tangential but I've been searching for vim plugin that can do intellisense/autocomplete like Eclipse or IntelliJ, does something like this exist?


I use neocomplete[1] myself. It needs a Vim compiled with Lua support (there's also a Lua-less version) and is quite good.

Have you given YouCompleteMe a shot? http://valloric.github.io/YouCompleteMe/


YCM is great. Depending on the language though you may need additional plugins to get "smart" completion into Vim. For instance, tern.js does this for Javascript:

YouComplete does not currently work with neovim as neovim does not ship with python bindings yet.


It's worth noting they appear to be working closely [1] with Valloric to ensure that vim plugins will easily work with NeoVim.

Sure, but unless I'm misunderstanding the parent commenter they were asking for a vim plugin, not a neovim plugin right?


YouCompletemeMe plugin can work very well with Eclim.
