How to configure function/variable signature for Elixir in the Zed editor?
Hi all, I am also using zed for about a month now.
There is something that I find missing on zed(or I do not know how to enable it), it is the function/variable signature for elixir.
Do you know how I can configure this ?
Here are the examples from VSCode and Zed
VSCode:
Zed:
Also, it would be useful if you point me how to explore options for settings in zed.
BTW: This is also happening with JS, no signature/type on autocomplete.
Thanks all !

It’s not perfect, but should work out-of-box already, see:
Make sure that:
zedis up to date (usegit pullto get latestzedversion when building from source)- run
zedinreleasemode (usecargo run --release) - ensure that your project compiles, so the language server is able to continue it’s work
The default comment at the top of the settings file should say everything. If you have no idea how to quickly open settings the take a look at the caret menu in top-right corner, see:
Since zed officially supports only Mac and other OS/distribution support is in-progress it’s not so easy to get help from non-Mac users. It’s not like that everyone works on unstable software in production.
Fortunately there is a Collab Panel button in bottom-left corner, see:
The chat should now be located in right dock!
