I considered writing about Terra as ab examples of a similar language but I felt the fact that Terra did this at JIT time made it too different to compare. In that regard it is not all that different from Julia. That Zig does this AOT is significant I think.
- junon 4y agoI'm not sure what you mean. Terra does JIT to do AOT compilation. You run either Lua _or_ native code (JITed) at compilation time to produce Terra code that ultimately gets emitted into the final executable.
- socialdemocrat 4y agoSo you can create a distributable executable without any of the Lua code? Or will the exe contain a Lua interpreter?
