Experience with statically typed lang that compiles to lua for plugins/scripting?
I have no affiliations, but I think teal would be a great such language. It feels very much like "what TS is to JS" in that it's syntax is (I believe) a superset of lua, and it is possible to require teal files in lua files by first requiring the teal compiler (a one line change). In fact, there's already a neovim plugin that I use everyday written in teal! Teal also has the concept of declaration files (like `.d.ts` in TS or `.pyi` in python), and it has [declaration files for neovim files](https://github.com/teal-language/teal-types/tree/master/types/neovim) already. However, its LSP is very, very young.

Is it possible to configure neovim with teal instead of lua?
There are type definitions in the teal-types repo for neovim. And as for theoretical, my config is like 99% teal right now (granted I am biased since I'm one of its maintainiers :P) (also it's on a dev branch of teal with some unstable features so don't just copy paste stuff and expect it to work).
