tiny lua compiler: a lua compiler in a single file, that's well-documented, that was hand-crafted over several years, and made to teach you compiler/tokenizer/parser/lexer design.
this is a crazy impressive project, and in a time when people are haphazardly slopcoding projects, is a standard to live by.

Just a guy who runs an IT consulting business and tries to live a married life to his best. I fix systems that are supposed to be impossibly hard to fix at work, and in my private life I pay my bills and try to understand the people I love. Sometimes successful, sometimes not.

https://github.com/wowemulation-dev/rilua has seen some more releases. Some performance improvements have been made on one regression cleaning up too much in the GC was fixed.
We are getting closer to matching Luas performance.
