[clangd-dev] RFC: Semantic highlighting

[Nathan Ridge via clangd-dev]

In case anyone's interested, I have a work-in-progress prototype implementation of the LSP semantic highlighting extension:

https://reviews.llvm.org/D61842

I'm not sure when I'll have a chance to resume working on it, so I thought I'd post it in case someone was interested in picking up work on it. Please see the revision summary for its current status if you're interested.

Thanks,
Nate

Thanks for the notice Nathan!

Due to the change of plans I am now busy upstreaming our index-while-building implementation in clang. I don't want to speculate on our plans but having a semantic highlighting in clangd is still really important for us.

Thanks.
