Neovim Hotkeys

No. Since 0.1.5, Neovim has had its own release cycle and its own automated CI/CD and testing infrastructure. Code from Vim is sometimes ported to Neovim, but non-trivial changes usually need considerable adaptation and refactoring, and may also require updates to Neovim help docs.

Lua is a first-class language designed to be embeddable, which makes its tooling easier to use and maintain. Existing configs can still use VimL, but Lua is a better fit for Neovim's goal of an extensible editor and ecosystem.

See the Vim + Lua guide. Vim 9.1 still does not provide a standard event loop, package manager, Treesitter support, vim.lsp, or a public API, and its Lua standard library interface differs from Neovim's.
