    Yes. It is compiled to Vim script using ELVM[1]. Though the author of Vim script backend of ELVM is me :)

  • neovim

    Vim-fork focused on extensibility and usability

    This was tried by ZyX-I when the Neovim project was started. AFAIK they managed to create an alternative parser for Vimscript, but the transpiler was never finished (or productionized?), I think due to incompatibilities that are hard to avoid. Some relevant issues:

    - https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/170

    - https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/387

    - https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/392
