Now I like lua and think single pass is the way to go for interpreted, since you don't have the disadvantage of a slow compile time no matter how big your codebase gets, BUT its not great to write in. some things are (apparently) not possible, which means the only solution is to transpile into it, which has led to some good languages like moonscript[0], and the dynamic nature is a boon as your codebase grows, which has led to teal[1] which offers static type checking.
