Requirements

make sure you install the clangd support component through Visual Studio Setup, and make sure the installed clang++.exe is in your system path env variable. Needs to be added manually to path, the installer does not do that has been tested with Unreal Engine 5.1 and 5.2. Unsure what, if any other versions work (optional) If you don't already have your own configuration, I recommend you use my neovim configuration specialized for development in Unreal Engine https://github.com/zadirion/UnrealHero.nvim Installation

Install with packer

use {'zadirion/Unreal.nvim',
    requires =
    {
        {"tpope/vim-dispatch"}
    }
  }

Known Limitations

the generated plugin config file that sits next to the uproj (UnrealNvim.json) only contains the Editor and non-Editor Development target configurations. Feel free to add DebugGame, Test, and Shipping targets to it, it should work in theory but I have not tested it. Let me know if you encounter issues.
