> Development tools like this with an obscene amount of dependencies, not to mention multi-language dependencies, is extremely worrying and irresponsible for the future of software development

Care to elaborate why?

Not particularly, since it'll only fall on deaf ears considering HN's demographic.

So you want to tell, it's better to have no tool at all (given pre-tree-sitter Bash LSP doesn't exist), than to have a tool with a lot of dependencies? I get that some may avoid having huge number of dependencies on production, but when it comes to local development tools, I couldn't care less. It's 2021, I can buy 1 TB SSD for less than 100 bucks.

You maybe able to buy a TB SSD for < $100, but you can't make sense of the ball of mud that is on it.
