Emacs - YCMD
Table of Contents
Introduction
YouCompleteMe (YCM) is originally a completion framework for VIM1, and afterwards splitted into a general server and a client. The general server, namely YCM daemon (YCMD)2, is able to provide interface to a variety of clients beyond VIM, e.g. Emacs. Moreover, both company and auto-complete can directly utilize what the server/daemon provides.
