    I'm not an expert, but there are C bindings: I was able to play around with a toy compiler[1] in Lua using lualvm[2]

    I also know of at least one compiler[2] that actually emits textual IR, and then builds and links .obj files from that with the LLVM toolchain...but I think that's just a bunch of work, would be hard to debug, and generally just a bad idea.
