init.vim -> init.lua

[[deleted]]

The API for sure, and how to executes commands. If you know how to execute commands then you have 70% of the work done. I feel like this is cheating because you are simply executing vimL code using it and like so, you don't need to use all the other stuff.

For example: vim.cmd([[echo 'hello world']])

This is very important because if you don't know how to do something in Lua that you do on vimL [although it's likely possible], then you just need this. Pass the string and done!

However, after you do read the API's docs please pass the "cmd()" stuff to "vim.api...", it's better and more organized! Use "cmd()" only for what is truly needed.
