Yet another attempt at bringing zig to the IntelliJ world. An LSP-powered language plugin for the Zig Programming Language.
## QUICKSTART ## QUICKSTART
Go to `Settings` -> `Languages & Frameworks` -> `Zig` -> `ZLS path` -> select your `zls` executable 1. Download or compile the ZLS language server, available at https://github.com/zigtools/zls
2. Go to `Settings` -> `Languages & Frameworks` -> `Zig` -> `ZLS path` -> set the path to the `zls` executable you downloaded or compiled
3. Open a .zig file, and wait for the circle in the bottom status bar to turn Green (empty).
See below for an explanation on what the circle means.

Red (X symbol):
LSP server is stopped. You either don't have a proper ZLS path set, or you don't have a .zig file open.
Yellow ("refresh arrow" symbol):
LSP server is starting, please be patient.
Green (empty):
