gopherlua online with Winfy

We have hosted the application gopherlua in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about gopherlua:

GopherLua is a Lua5.1(+ goto statement in Lua5.2) VM and compiler written in Go. GopherLua has the same goal as Lua: To be a scripting language with extensible semantics. It provides Go APIs that allow you to easily embed a scripting language to your Go host programs. The stack-based API like the one used in the original Lua implementation will cause a performance improvement in GopherLua (It will reduce memory allocations and concrete type <-> interface conversions). GopherLua API is not a stack-based API. GopherLua gives preference to user-friendliness over performance. GopherLua APIs perform in much the same way as Lua, but the stack is used only for passing arguments and receiving returned values.

Features:

• GopherLua is not fast but not too slow, I think
• GopherLua has almost equivalent ( or little bit better ) performance as Python3 on micro benchmarks
• GopherLua supports >= Go1.9
• GopherLua supports channel operations
• All data in a GopherLua program is an LValue
• You can test an object type in Go way

Programming Language: Go.
