Interested to see how this will impact the plugin community, as the Neovim maintainer mentioned he wouldn't implement vim9script there.

- capableweb 5y agoMore or less furthering the gap we all knew was coming at one point or another (opinion from former Vim user but current Neovim user). Neovim ecosystem mostly write plugins in Lua by now, and most new Vim plugins will probably require something from Vim9 Script at one point.
- neurobashing 5y agoIf I had to guess: someone will eventually build a transpiler/converter of some sort, most likely vim9->Lua (assuming my guess that vim still has more users than Neovim).
- blindseer 5y agoTJ (one of neovim's core devs) has already started work on that: https://github.com/tjdevries/vim9jit https://github.com/tjdevries/vim9jit Their twitch streams where they work on this are a lot of fun too.
