Reascript: Using Vim or Neovim as a text editor

[aRMARa]

Hola everyone,

Main reason for switching from sublime text 3 with reasyntax plugin (as recommended by ExtemRaym's reascript course) to neovim is for strong customisability and editability. I will be using deoplete for auto completion and ultisnips for snippet functionality.

Now, it looks like I have two options. Which are:

1. Create a parser for reascript api doc to convert it into ultisnip snippets or

2. Research in to converting sublime text 3's snippets in to ultisnips snippets to be used in neovim.

Both will be an interesting approach. Especially no. 1 as that will be a great challenge to write and will be a good exercise because I will be writing it in lua if possible.

Please if anybody here is already using a similar set up or have an input, please enlighten me on a better way if there are any. All directions would be welcome.

Thanks!
