Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Buzz: A lightweight statically typed scripting language
I'm a fan or Umka. It is inspired by Go and can be embedded into C programs.
https://github.com/vtereshkov/umka-lang
- The Umka scripting language released: Now with closures, type switch statements and faster strings

Closures in Umka
My scripting language Umka now supports closures. This is not merely a matter of fashion, but the requirement of the Tophat game engine that heavily relies on callbacks, particularly for inter-module communication via signals.
-
Umka 1.0 released. It's now the scripting language in the Tophat game framework
After three years of development, I released Umka 1.0, a statically typed scripting language designed for embedding into C/C++ host applications. Its syntax and some key features were inspired by Go. However, Umka doesn't rely on the Go ecosystem and only needs the C standard library to run.

Umka: A statically typed embeddable scripting language
Yaegi needs to be embedded in another golang program. It’s a golang module to evaluate golang. Which is cool, but different from what Umka seems to be.
Umka is a scripting language with syntax inspired by golang. A language with its own vm that you can embed anywhere, exsmple: https://github.com/vtereshkov/umka-lang/blob/master/examples....
Yaegi and Umka are two different things.

UmPlot: A visualization tool for the Umka language
UmPlot 0.1 has been released. It is an easy-to-use cross-platform plotting library for the Umka language. It is based on raylib and distributed as an Umka Module Implementation (UMI) file, i. e. a language extension shared library with an Umka interface.

Closures without closures in Umka
Some people who tried to use the Umka scripting language were frustrated by the absence of closures. This feature is under development and not yet released. However, you can easily simulate closures with the good old structures, methods and interfaces. This simple truth sometimes comes as a surprise to the users.

Umka: what additional features do you expect from an embeddable scripting language?
I have been developing the statically typed scripting language Umka for more than a year. Now it is stable enough to serve as the basis for various projects: a 2D game engine, a VDrift-based framework for exercising with the car autopilot logic, and a proprietary tractor dynamics simulator.

Ask HN: Parrot language copycat my Gravity source code. What can I do?
I found out that the Parrot programming language (https://github.com/parrot-language/parrot) did copycat line by line my Gravity programming language (https://github.com/marcobambini/gravity).
I know that I used a very permissive license and that the project can be forked and modified by anyone but this is a theft more than a fork.
What can I do in this situation?

Lua's Lack of “Batteries”
This is gonna be subjective, because it depends on what your priorities are.
The two alternatives at the top of my list are Gravity and Wren. They are both designed for the same general profile that Lua has—a scripting language, safe to use, embeddable, with a small VM (low code size).
- https://github.com/marcobambini/gravity
- https://wren.io/
The language design choices are nice and familiar to people who are used to other existing languages. Lua is a bit radical.
Two other options are AngelScript and Squirrel, which are both a bit older and more mature than Gravity and Wren. In my opinion they are
- http://www.angelcode.com/angelscript/
- http://squirrel-lang.org/
Finally, it’s much more feasible these days to embed something like Mono, and Guile has gotten a lot better.
What are some alternatives?
jstar - A lightweight embeddable scripting language
blade - A modern general-purpose programming language focused on enterprise Web, IoT, and secure application development.
