#2This is a very cool project.
There is also MLKit's SMLtoJs which compiles to Javascript, but not to Lua.

#3I got tricked up by the acronym. This compiles the programming language "Standard ML [Meta Language]" to the programming languages Lua or JavaScript. It's not a machine learning compiler.

I can no longer google "ML Kit" and find the ML compiler, instead I find Google's ML library. You win some, you lose some.

#6On work laptop (Windows) at the moment. Will get to it in the weekend, but can some kind soul tell me: is the lua and js generated code readable?
(Standard for readable for me is ReScript)

Which in turn compiles itself into Javascript, such that you can run the SMLtoJS compiler in the browser, e.g. it should be possible to make it accept tags with SML code.

#8I've always loved Standard ML and feel it's never gotten the love that it deserved.
It was my introduction to typed FP concepts via this course (Part A) https://www.coursera.org/learn/programming-languages

Agreed! But OCaml is close enough that I don't despair.
Chris okasaki's purely functional data structures is an excellent intro to SML if your familiar with FP already.

those of us interested in the ML language family have been disappointed for years every time a headline turns out to be yet another machine learning thing, so I'm glad to see this one was actually an ML (:
