clice is a next-generation language server designed for modern C++. Through excellent asynchronous task scheduling and intelligent caching, it achieves a lower memory footprint and faster response times.
Beyond performance, clice provides instantiation-aware template processing, supports switching header contexts between different source files (including non-self-contained headers), and offers comprehensive support for C++20 modules, from code completion to go-to-definition. Our goal is to provide C++ developers with a truly fast, precise, and intelligent development companion.
Important
Support for header contexts and C++20 modules are core features currently under active development. They will be progressively refined in upcoming releases. Stay tuned!
Download the latest clice binary from the releases page and install the vscode extension. Then, add the following configuration to your .vscode/settings.json file:
