Neovim

The neovim/nvim-lspconfig has a large number of presets for language servers, including neocmakelsp. Install the plugin and add the following to your configuration:

-- init.lua

-- Configure the language server
vim.lsp.config("neocmake", { --[[ opts ]] })

-- Enable the language server
vim.lsp.enable("neocmake")

Helix

As if version 25.07 Helix has built-in support for neocmakelsp and doesn't require any additional setup.

Emacs

Add the following to your Emacs configuration:

(use-package cmake-ts-mode
  :config
  (add-hook 'cmake-ts-mode-hook
    (defun setup-neocmakelsp ()
      (require 'eglot)
      (add-to-list 'eglot-server-programs `((cmake-ts-mode) . ("neocmakelsp" "stdio")))
      (eglot-ensure))))
