It’s quite nice to see a fairly complete implementation of Lua for the web. Lua is a much simpler and more approachable language than modern JavaScript, so it’s great to see a strong pathway for using that in the browser. 🙂

@akkartik, is there any chance it provides a pathway for your LÖVE-based programs to appear on the web as well? I guess there are efforts like [love.js](https://github.com/Davidobot/love.js) already, but they seem to use Emscripten, so perhaps Fengari offers a nicer route (depending on whether it assists with graphics APIs). Browsers make some things more difficult though, especially saving state as recently discussed with [TiddlyWiki](https://forum.malleable.systems/t/tiddlywiki/65), so perhaps you’re not that interested in deploying to the web.
