Do you know Luvit? http://luvit.io/ http://luvit.io/
- gruseom 14y agoI've heard of it, but I'm unclear on the benefit. Can't you do async I/O in Lua already? What's the value of adopting the Node.js model, which is mostly about adding I/O to V8 and using callback functions for async, in Lua? (I hope that doesn't sound trollish – I'm ignorant and would like to understand, and the Luvit project page doesn't help.)
