Other interesting projects: - https://github.com/giann/fengari - new project, most exciting IMO - https://github.com/daurnimator/lua.vm.js - emscripten based, has best interactions with DOM (but is a dead end) - http://www.moonshinejs.org/ - no longer maintained, interesting model though - https://github.com/paulcuth/starlight - transpiler: you loose ability to use proper coroutines which are IMO most interesting feature for lua in browser - https://github.com/creationix/brozula/ - unmaintained - https://github.com/logiceditor-com/lua5.1.js - https://github.com/mherkender/lua.js

Would be interesting to compare performance to the other ways of getting Lua to run in the browser, which include writing a Lua bytecode interpreter in JS, converting Lua to JS, and code generation from bytecode. https://github.com/creationix/brozula https://github.com/mherkender/lua.js (and others, I had a list somewhere) Quite a few companies are using Lua->JS as a way of doing write once run cross platform games eg we had this talk at London Lua http://www.londonlua.org/luajavascript/index.html

Similar project that converts specifically the LuaJIT bytecode to JS https://github.com/creationix/brozula
