I'm looking for a lightweight open-source setup (or editor) that still offers solid feature parity—good code completion, refactoring, and debugging.</p> <p>For anyone doing Java work on a lighter stack:</p> <p>What setup or extensions (like VS Code/VSCodium or Eclipse) are you using?</p> <p>Any hidden gems or LSP setups you'd recommend?</p> <p>Appreciate any suggestions!</p> debugging java opensource vscode
