Is there a need for an LSP in HVM?
Probably it would need a better error handling. The ideal would be something like Rust errors messaging ( or better ).
In my view there is two approachs for a LSP. Creating something on top of the exposed api for handling error. Or creating a checker from zero. The later is not great, because this means more code to maintain.
The first approach has the need of creating an api to expose errors. Also should keep in mind how this is gonna play with languages that target hvm.
I think the first one is much better from a maintainability perspective, and to help embed HVM. Do you have some pointers to help with the first approach?
I think it's good to adopt to

I think that implement some of this on the parser. That will return a ParserError enum. And than some kind of typing systemish thing to catch at compile time any error, that will happend on runtime.
Rust has a good approach on the lexer and parser that says to you what was expected.
I think Kind should have that. HVM is more of a compile target, devs shouldn't be writing large projects on it.
