Lua Development for Neovim
nlua.nvim was a plugin for writing Lua config and plugins in Neovim, adding sumneko-lua LSP setup and completions for the Neovim API. It's for Neovim plugin authors, but the README's entire content is one line telling you not to use it.
The scripts/download_sumneko.lua approach to fetching and wiring up a language server was a reasonable pattern for its time, and the ftplugin-based activation kept it out of your way unless you were actually editing Neovim Lua files.
The author deprecated it in favor of folke/neodev.nvim and the last push was December 2022, so it's unmaintained and the README gives you zero reason to look further. There's no changelog or migration notes for existing users, just the redirect. Not worth featuring or evaluating further — this one's dead.
