Because LUA is much simpler, already porting LUJit to LUA5.3 is revealing hard as far as I understood

- ufo 12y agoLuaJIT "forked" from Lua during the 5.1 days. There are still some features from 5.1 that Mike (intentionally) didn't port to LuaJIT.
- yoklov 12y agoMy understanding is that LuaJIT isn't really under active development anymore. It does seem like it would be hard to add the 5.3 features to LuaJIT without compromising on efficiency, but given how clever Mike Pall is, I'd suspect it can be done.
- justincormack 12y agoIt is under active development. There is the start of an arm64 port recently for example. Mike did take a break to do other stuff for a bit it seems, but its not stopped.
