Editor Support
The nemcss LSP (Language Server Protocol) gives you autocomplete and hover documentation for every generated utility class and CSS custom property, directly in your editor.
VS Code
Install the extension from the VS Code marketplace:
Once installed, the extension automatically starts the language server when it detects a nemcss.config.json in your workspace. No additional configuration needed.
What you get:
- Autocomplete for all generated utility classes (e.g.
.text-primary,.p-md) - Autocomplete for all generated CSS custom properties (e.g.
--color-primary) - Hover documentation showing the resolved value for each token
Supported file types: CSS, SCSS, Sass, Less, HTML, JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, TSX, Vue, Svelte, Astro
Neovim and other editors
For any editor that supports the Language Server Protocol, you can use the standalone nemcss-lsp binary.

Download the binary for your platform from GitHub Releases:

Configure your editor
Point your LSP client at the nemcss-lsp binary and enable it for CSS files. The server communicates over stdio.
Neovim (with nvim-lspconfig):
local lspconfig = require('lspconfig')
local configs = require('lspconfig.configs')
if not configs.nemcss then
configs.nemcss = {
default_config = {
cmd = { '/path/to/nemcss-lsp' },
filetypes = { 'css', 'html', 'javascriptreact', 'typescriptreact', 'vue', 'svelte', 'astro', 'json' },
root_dir = lspconfig.util.root_pattern('nemcss.config.json'),
},
}
end
lspconfig.nemcss.setup({})
