Is there any solution for C++ goto definition in sublime text 3 on ubuntu16.04?

I've tried installing ctags package in sublime text 3 and exuberant-ctag in ubuntu16.04, but it was not feasible to finish goto c++ definition. So I want to know how to be able to jump to c++ definition in sublime text 3 of ubuntu16.04. Any advice will be appreciated.

  • LSP + ccls

    sublimelsp/LSP implements a Language Server Protocol (LSP) for Sublime Text 3, which you can use as the language client for your editor:

    ccls is an excellent C++ language server which speaks LSP. The ccls author has even answered a ticked for, particularly, making use of ccls in Sublime Text 3:
