vimpeccable VS aniseed

This This PR was just merged so you can expect native support for that in the next version (albeit not super pretty, but you can write your own abstraction). Until then take a look at vimpeccable.

Are the developers considering to use the same API for keybindings? Passing a local function to a keybinding is currently only possible using something like vimpeccable.

You might be interested in one of astronauta.nvim, nvim-cartographer or vimpeccable.

Vimpeccable

I used vimpeccable to create the mappings. I think you can also use vim.api.nvim_replace_termcodes to escape the , but haven’t tested it.

I use vimp for mapping.

You could also use the vimpeccable plugin which allows you to just map to lua functions

aniseed

You don't need to transpile it if you use https://github.com/Olical/aniseed

Something similar: Fennel (https://fennel-lang.org/) is a lisp that compiles into Lua, which nvim can use as plugins, so you can write nvim plugins in a lisp. Aniseed (https://github.com/Olical/aniseed) makes this really easy.

Just use vim. Yes, emacs has a lisp engine, but so does nvim[1]. Really, though, using vim properly means that it doesn't need to swallow the kitchen sink[2]. Just use vim.

I use Aniseed to write my configs in Fennel, and I can't seem to find a way to get Aniseed bootstrapped and managed by lazy. Folke has said that fennel isn't supported in issues about hotpot and tangerine, but neither of them particularly help me solve my issue

Have you tried aniseed ?

Aniseed: mostly an environment, it does handle configuration. It adds a lot of clojure features (another modern Lisp) such as a module system. It does seem to be slower to startup though, but I really like how its module system works and still use it for that reason alone. There's not much boilerplate code, just add it to the header

The easiest would be to use aniseed: https://github.com/Olical/aniseed, it has a bootstrap script that downloads all the needed dependencies: https://github.com/Olical/aniseed, it also adds some syntax niceties and testing support. Here's an example of a plugin: https://github.com/katawful/kat.nvim
