Description

I just followed the documentation on https://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/documentation/340_lsp_support.html#getting-started-intellij and ran into an issue. The Plugin "LSP Support" mentioned in the documentation is not available in my IntelliJ installation (IntelliJ IDEA 2022.3).
On GitHub, the Repository of the plugins seems to be dead.

Is there a workaround like the old gradle goal "runIdea"? I don't find this in a newly created XText project.

Research direction

Start with the IntelliJ LSP Support section of the linked Xtext documentation and compare it with IntelliJ IDEA 2022.3 and a newly created Xtext project. Investigate whether the old Gradle runIdea goal or another workaround is available, then update the documentation to reflect the supported setup and workaround, if one exists.
