jdtls, typescript-language-server and CocoaPods

The Java and TypeScript language servers for editors and AI agents, and CocoaPods for Flutter's iOS builds.

.md

Language servers give an editor or an AI agent what an IDE knows: where a symbol is defined, who calls it, and what does not compile. The workstation installs them once, from Homebrew, so every tool uses the same copy. CocoaPods fetches the iOS libraries a Flutter app depends on.

On the workstation

Installed by the jdtls, typescript-language-server and cocoapods formulae.
Claude Code uses them through the jdtls-lsp and typescript-lsp plugins from claude-plugins-official; gopls-lsp uses gopls from the Go tools.
jdtls runs on the Java that mise makes active.
Flutter runs pod install itself when it builds for iOS.
