In addition to that, I think those should be mentioned: - Software Defined Networking. We are starting to see LuaJIT in particular being used to write very high performance network code in userspace (e.g. Snabb). - IoT. Lua has always had a niche as an embedded language, especially on weird small hardware platforms. It is known for being extremely easy to port and using few resources. It is what you reach for when you want slightly more than what a Forth gives you. See for instance the first Tessel, NodeMCU, the Sevenhugs SDK...
