collagraph VS fengari

Shameless plug for a similar project called Collagraph (https://github.com/fork-tongue/collagraph).

From the README: Write your Python interfaces in a declarative manner with plain render functions, component classes or even single-file components using Vue-like syntax, but with Python!

  - Reactivity (made possible by leveraging observ)

You could implement a HTML renderer with Collagraph (https://github.com/fork-tongue/collagraph).

From the README:

https://github.com/fork-tongue/collagraph/pull/66

From the project README:

Write your Python interfaces in a declarative manner with plain render functions, component classes or even single-file components using Vue-like syntax, but with Python!

- Reactivity (made possible by leveraging observ)

- Function components

- Class components with local state and life-cycle methods/hooks

-Single-file components with Vue-like syntax (.cgx files)

- Custom renderers (PySide, pygfx and now PyScript)

it should be possible, the article mentions https://fengari.io/ (a Lua VM written in JavaScript)

Check out Fengari or Lapis. Fun fact: itch.io is written primarily in Lua, and started by the same person who made Lapis and MoonScript.

I was real excited to see these recently... have you tried any? https://fengari.io/ is the one I was most intrigued by.

Hello, there is also fengari: https://fengari.io/

Other languages have done that :)

Lua in the browser: https://fengari.io/

And then you can use that to run Fennel, a Lisp that compiles to Lua https://fennel-lang.org/

I think TypeScript also has a script you can include that lets you put your TS code in a special script tag, and it gets compiled in-browser.

just use lua, it’s what should have been used for web scripting anyways

Please stop this stuck in the mud nonsense. Anyone stumbling upon lua.org might think the project is dead already. The material is great, close to the best, but its presentation is pure shite. Not mobile friendly (what kinds of device do you think the majority of people in the Global South use?). We live in a world of code highlighting, none of that in PiL. We live in a world where Fengari allows Lua to run in the browser, does that make an appearance on lua.org, allowing users to immediately play with the language? Of course not! It's almost as if the Lua team is trying to push away potential users.

why not use lua

Just use lua https://fengari.io/

Definitely the most surprising use-case for Lua that I've seen is http://lua.space/webdev/why-we-rewrote-lua-in-js which discusses https://fengari.io/.
