They are just command that you could execute manually (using ':' like in vim). The difference is that all the commands in this file are executed at startup.

As I said, all the heavy lifting is done in scopes like %sh{ ... }. This way you can actually use any language you want, and it's only the piping you have to do through kakoune commands.

Most common languages (like go) already have plugins to do some basic tasks like formatting.

If you're interested in the editor, I would rather recommend reading the readme of the project[1]. There is a lot to read, and you can start making plugins once you understand it.
