wasm_lua

Lua VM running in your browser!

Open here, if it works you should see "Hello Lua!".

Each update is executed in a unique VM instance via WASM + emscripten.

Currently test on Firefox 52.0 but probably works on other platforms as well.

Why?

Lua is a fast, highly embeddable VM that boasts a wide set of features allowing it to be adapted to a diverse set of domains and platforms.

Can be run in 400kb of memory or less.
Multi-paradigm via metatables, closures and coroutines.
Robust, proven VM that's shipped on platforms including MIPS, x86, ARM and many others(and now WASM!).
Small, easy to understand language.
Extensible debugger hooks for easy on-target debugging.
