I installed xcode, llvm, brew, and I have clang on my system but not clangd ..., I googled around and only find how install clang not clangd. I tried brew install clangd but not found clangd. I even tried to go through the docs of llvm and still could not find the answer...

  `clangd is present in the MacOS binary llvm 8.0.0 release on the LLVM Download Page mentioned on the web page in the installing clangd link. It's also present in the previous prebuilt MacOS binary llvm 7.0.0.
