Adventures in JIT compilation
I wrote my own Brainfuck to LuaJIT transpiler https://github.com/ExtReMLapin/fast_brainfuck.lua It beats any other available interpreter/transpiler in others scripting languages

Ask HN: How many of you Apple developers still use Objective C?
I’ve been toying with a few utilities I want to turn into apps, and came across https://github.com/mogenson/lua-macos-app the other day. It binds LuaJIT directly to Objective-C.
It is _insanely good_ to my eyes since I’ve done ObjC since the NeXT days and find Swift full of weird corner cases and limited functionality.

python-brainfuck - Simple python code for compile brainfuck program.
Penlight - A set of pure Lua libraries focusing on input data handling (such as reading configuration files), functional programming (such as map, reduce, placeholder expressions,etc), and OS path management. Much of the functionality is inspired by the Python standard libraries.
