JQ syntax editor/plugin for jetbrains products

[chb0github]

This is a feature request for support and integration with jetbrains editorsfor jq syntax. Jetbrains offers a plugin framework for such things, and it would be a great way to further support the jq community:

Specifically:

1. Syntax highlighting
2. syntax error/validation
3. debug

Perhaps a new repo for the effort, so it can grow independently. I recognize this doesn't specifically align to this repo, but I saw no where else to publish the request

If it supports LSP there is https://github.com/wader/jq-lsp which i use for https://github.com/wader/vscode-jq which also has example of grammar for syntax highlighting.

Can this be brought under the umbrella of jqlang org ?

Yeap might be good idea. I've thought about if https://github.com/wader/jqjq should be move there also. But then i guess it should be seen as more "official"? not sure what other maintainers think?

jq-lsp started as quick hack that happen to work weridly well, so unfortunately the code is a mess atm and hard to work it. Ideally i think it would make more sense to rewrite it using tree-sitter etc. I wonder how hard it would be to plumb together tree-sitter with a jq implementation to still implement the language sever part in jq?

My goodness, you wrote a language server for jq?! That's awesome!

I guess it was more targeted at fq ;)

We should link this from the README!

Currently the installation of both jq-lsp and vscode-jq is not very polished, no packing and i'm not sure it even works on windows :). Maybe we could for now add some section to the wiki with development support stuff?

btw have you seen https://github.com/fiatjaf/awesome-jq? maybe could cherry pick some stuff from there also
