Thumbs up for any common language support!
I would love if those languages could be used as much effectively as Vimscript 
itself for Vim programming.

I tried to make all Vim builtins also ES builtins so that simple scripts look 
almost the same in ES as in Vimscript. Have a look at 
https://github.com/bobpepin/vim/blob/duktape/runtime/indent/python.js, 
autogenerated from the corresponding .vim file, 
https://github.com/bobpepin/vim/blob/duktape/runtime/indent/python.vim.

(Caveat: no datatypes requiring automatic memory management can be passed 
between Vimscript builtins and ES)

I am playing around with the asyn/await features from recent ES versions 
together with Vim channels and events (keyboard input/autocmds) right now, imho 
it’s significantly more effective than Vimscript as soon as callbacks get 
involved. For a sample JSP implementation, see 
https://github.com/bobpepin/vim/blob/duktape/src/jsp-jsonrpc.ts.

Best,
Bob

Thanks Bob, sounds interesting.

Actually, I'm new to Vimscript and just had to lean it while working on my re-make of StlShowFunc <https://github.com/dr-chip-vim-scripts/StlShowFunc> plugin.

Just curious if the plugin could be easily re-writed on ECMAScript also, could you have a look maybe? :)

(e.g., people complained that Python integration is not very elegant, dunno anything about that)
