https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite-wasm sqlite-wasm loads much faster than Pyodide, so if you don't need Python, then the former is a better choice.

"That said, if your heuristic is 'words used in strange ways' then you will get false positives from all teenagers." This made my day.

FTR, Fennel support was indeed fairly easy to add. https://github.com/MicroLua/MicroLua/commit/b9dfa2407afe932b...

MicroLua currently compiles Lua files to binary at built time. It seems that Fennel is capable of transpiling to Lua source code, so it should be easy to add that step to the build…

I have to admit that this was one reason why it took me so long to start a project with Lua. Now that I've had some exposure to the language, I can say that it's not as bad as it s…

Thanks for the kind words :) I've been working on this in my spare time since March, so roughly 8 months.

I haven't run any benchmarks yet, and TBH performance isn't a high priority, but event dispatch latency is currently fairly bad, between 100 and 150 us (when overclocking the Pico …

I can't really give advice for creating a new language, or even for creating a new implementation of an existing one. MicroLua uses the existing Lua implementation from lua.org, an…

It looks like noceMCU uses Lua 5.1.4 or Lua 5.3.5, while MicroLua uses 5.4.6. Other than that, nodeMCU is much more advanced :)

MicroLua allows programming the RP2040 microcontroller in Lua. It packages the latest Lua interpreter with bindings for the Pico SDK and a cooperative threading library. MicroLua i…
