Frawk: A fast, JITted, statically-typed AWK written in Rust
Interesting (and a bit surprising) that the cranelift backend keeps up with LLVM backend reasonably well, especially with parallelism enabled https://github.com/ezrosent/frawk/blob/master/info/performan...

Frawk: A fast, JITted, statically-typed AWK written in Rust
One of my recent project requires a fast awk implementation, and I tried frawk and got surprised by how robust it is. Although eventually we chose https://github.com/noyesno/awka for better native awk script compatibility, it's still wonderful to see a project incorporating recent advances of programming language implementation into the ancient awk.

awkcc: awk-to-C transcompiler (1988, 2011)
Interested parties should also check out awka (https://github.com/noyesno/awka) and ELVM (which can compile C into awk or sed, among various other things) (https://github.com/shinh/elvm)

Big list of ASCII games you can play in the terminal
And since you can actually convert awk to C, that means that sed can actually do anything awk can.

A Git Implementation in Awk
ok, I found https://github.com/noyesno/awka so it is possible, though it uses it's own lib to link against - I don't know how much of that is based on AWK C vs original code.

pawk - PAWK - A Python line processor (like AWK)
awk - One true awk
goawk - A POSIX-compliant AWK interpreter written in Go, with CSV support
Lua-RTOS-ESP32 - Lua RTOS for ESP32
tinyscheme - TinyScheme is easy to learn and modify. It is structured like a meta-interpreter, only it is written in C.
