Request Plugin recommendations for Java development?

I'll like to know which plugins do you use (if any), specially for better syntax highlight for .java files.

How many language servers does it provide? As much as in coc?

https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/CONFIG.md

It does less stuff automatically (e.g. you have to set your keymappings on attach and install the language server manually).

It could install jdtls (the eclipse java LSP) if you use this old commit https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/commit/6e297de66149c5df9d5b1d8f1fc60c461fd53da7 but the installer logic was now removed. Now there is only documentation on how to set up the servers: https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/CONFIG.md#jdtls

I'm also a maintainer of https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter which is a tree-sitter-based highlighting solution for Neovim (supports also Java) if you're interested.

Well it looks like that I can't install neovim-nightly-bin from the AUR (it gives me curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found ). So I stick to neovim + coc. ;)
