How can I run a vim.cmd asynchronously?
If you are really interested in doing this yourself with loop, you should take a look at either plenary.job or netman.shell (I made the latter) as both are very well documented.

How to send curl requests without plugin dependency and read the result all in Lua?
I feel this :( That said, alot of plugins rely on plenary.nvim. Its up to you if you determine this is "non-essential" or not. It will almost certainly be available for you to use already.

nvim-http: A simple yet modern HTTP client for neovim
The big reason I ask is that reaching out to an external python shell to run commands (disregard the fact that its python running) is going to be much slower than using the in built lua JIT interpreter. Additionally, plenary has a built in curl function so you don't have to "reinvent the wheel".

Testing my config?
There is also test harness in nvim-lua/plenary.nvim with a slightly different design, but still usable of course.

How to write `pretty_print`ed json data into a json file?
I am simply using busted or more specifically vusted which is a wrapper around busted for Neovim. It should be quite straightforward to learn the basics, I would say you mostly need to know these functions: describe, it (these are used to structure your test cases) and assert.are_same (to check for table equality). Some people are also using plenary which is also based on busted.

Neovim Lua Nix plugin template
It's based on nvim-lua-plugin-template, but uses Nix flakes to run plenary.nvim tests.
