#### Explanation
|
||||
|
||||
JavaScript completion is based on [Tern][]. This completion engine requires a
|
||||
file named [`.tern-project`][tern-project] to exist in the current working
|
||||
directory or a directory which is an ancestor of the current working directory
|
||||
when the tern server is started. YCM starts the Tern server the first time a
|
||||
JavaScript file is edited, so Vim's working directory at that time needs to be a
|
||||
descendent of the directory containing the `.tern-project` file (or that
|
||||
directory itself).
|

when the Tern server is started. YCM starts the Tern server the first time a

JavaScript file is edited and uses its directory as the working directory, so

|
||||
directory containing the `.tern-project` file (or that directory itself).
|
||||

Alternatively, as described in the [Tern documentation][tern-docs], a global
|
||||
`.tern-config` file may be used.
