...It contains the full source code for two interpreters (one in C and one in Java), the Markdown source of the book, the tooling to weave prose and code into a website, and build scripts to generate the executable interpreters. The book aims to teach from the ground up how to build a full-featured scripting language (called Lox) with parsing, AST, compiler / VM, garbage collection, classes, and more. Static site generator tooling to compose book + code into HTML. Markdown source of book chapters and text prose. Full interpreter implementation in C (clox).

...Gravity has been developed from scratch for the Creo project in order to offer an easy way to write portable code for the iOS and Android platforms. It is written in portable C code that can be compiled on any platform using a C99 compiler. The VM code is about 4K lines long, the multipass compiler code is about 7K lines and the shared code is about 3K lines long. The compiler and virtual machine combined add less than 200KB to the executable on a 64-bit system.

The Ring is a practical general-purpose multi-paradigm language. The supported programming paradigms are imperative, procedural, object-oriented, declarative using nested structures, functional, meta programming and natural programming. The language is portable (MS-DOS, Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, WebAssembly, Microcontrollers, etc.) and can be used to create Console, GUI, Web, Games and Mobile applications. The language is designed to be simple, small and flexible. Ring is...

...However, static typing is optional and therefore Lua 5.3 programs are also valid Ravi programs. There are other attempts to add static typing to Lua (e.g. Typed Lua but these efforts are mostly about adding static type checks in the language while leaving the VM unmodified. So the static typing is to aid programming in the large - the code is eventually translated to standard Lua and executed in the unmodified Lua VM.

Think Smalltalk in a Lua-sized package with a dash of Erlang and wrapped up in a familiar, modern syntax. The VM implementation is under 4,000 semicolons. You can skim the whole thing in an afternoon. It's small, but not dense. It is readable and lovingly commented. A fast single-pass compiler to tight bytecode and a compact object representation help Wren compete with other dynamic languages. There are lots of scripting languages out there, but many have unusual or non-existent object models. ...

a new concept for programing: new syntax and a new way of coding source files. not bytecode or any typical implementation for vm. in fact, it encodes functions and keywords for a smaller code, which is good for small devices and embebbed devices. small code, small size, RUN faster.
