RubyMine.
- RubyMine is an Interactive Development Environment, not a Language Server Protocol. RubyMine doesn't need to use an LSP since it has all the features an LSP offers (and more) built into to the environment.
  
  Yup. My point by posting was to contribute to the conversation that I don’t use an LSP
- can RubyMine completion shows the method for word variable here?
  
  # frozen_string_literal: true array_of_strings = %w[foo fooo bar fioo] oo = array_of_strings.select { |word| word.end_with?('oo') } puts oo
  
  for example the end_with? method cuz with both solargraph and ruby-lsp they don't show any suggestions for the word variable at all.
  
  Yes, RubyMine will offer completion for this block.
  
  now i'm confused about why solargraph, which is said to be mature, can't do that. and also i just realized it when i used map instead of select; the methods appeared.
  
  wanna try RubyMine but i already comfortable in neovim. since RubyMine is an IDE i think my machine can't handle that lol.

  It's important to note that ruby-lsp is made by Shopify, and is currently used in-house by the company. The resources they can invest into ruby-lsp both in terms of development man-power and project management is naturally going to be higher than the community developed solargraph.

  That's strange, but Enumerable#map and Enumerable#select have different uses. One is used to execute a block across a collection of elements, while the other constructs a new collection based on the block passed to a collection and the results of evaluating that block against each element.

  I use RubyMine on my desktop and it's a very solid development experience. I'll say that if your machine can't quite handle RubyMine, VS Code(ium) is a nice alternative with the solargraph or ruby-lsp plugins. I don't know if they'll have the same completion issue as neovim though.
