I am not sure I fully grasp this yet but comments above are suggesting that because of LSP (Language server protocols) plugins can be portable now, from one editor to another i thought each editor needed its own plugin, and VS Code always seem to have the main plugin, didnt really come across plugins that run across multiple editor, but then i was not really checking this, next time i will check it

It's not that plugins are portable. LSP allows any editor that supports the protocol to provide language support (using a backend "language server" that is editor-agnostic), so it is not that hard for most editors these days to provide good intellisense/syntax-highlighting etc. that used to be limited to commercial-grade IDEs.

Most Vim plugins work unmodified on Neovim.
