Glad to know this is needed and thank you for your interest.

I made some initial issues I could think of on the repository page at
https://github.com/arjanadriaanse/pascal-language-server/issues [1].
Anyone is free to pick these up or create new issues, for example
feature requests.  Regardless of these issues, any pull requests are
welcome and you can also email me patches.

Apart from that, having a client for Visual Studio Code is useful for
many people, which would be a separate project.

Also, any feedback on my existing code is welcome, especially since
this is my first Pascal project.

Regards,

Arjan
