> more strongly typed alternatives See also this list for comparison https://github.com/fubark/cyber/issues/6, if you dont want lua by a meta-compiler. If you want non-allocating scripting for optimal performance (and io limited to what you provide as buffer), go for https://dascript.org/. I dont think there are currently other projects with that performance (+ also inspired by Zig). Though, not sure how clunky it is to use.
In Bog – small, strongly typed, embeddable language
Looking at the two of them, both awesome projects, not a competition but here are a few things I noticed. Cyber seems to have pretty good documentation [0] (maybe Bog does too but I didn't find too much from the readme. For example, you can see Bog has a GC and its standard library supports JSON, but memory management and non-scalar data structures aren't mentioned in the Bog readme). Cyber also seems to be under more active development at the moment. https://github.com/vexu/bog/graphs/contributors https://github.com/fubark/cyber/graphs/contributors [0] https://github.com/fubark/cyber/blob/master/docs/docs.md
