data types in function definition
This is a version in C and you can find a luarock package. If you prefer, there is a pure lua version in the metalua sources https://github.com/fab13n/metalua/blob/master/checks.lua

A new compiler for Lua and Ravi that can also generate code AOT
Hi, I have been working on a new compiler for Ravi - which is a dialect of Lua 5.3 with some support for static types, and supports JIT compilation. The new compiler I am writing will compile input Lua/Ravi code to C, and the generated C code can be compiled into a shared library, and loaded at runtime.
What are some alternatives?
tl - The compiler for Teal, a typed dialect of Lua
LuaJIT - Mirror of the LuaJIT git repository
lua-in-rust - The Lua programming language, implemented in Rust.
terra - Terra is a low-level system programming language that is embedded in and meta-programmed by the Lua programming language.
