Luf

Section titled “Luf”

Luf is a statically typed embeddable scripting language written in Zig.

The goal of this project is to create a simple, expressive scripting language that can be used to implement new ideas. As most of it is experimental, I would currently not recommend this for any serious use.

Resources

Building from source

Section titled “Building from source”

Linux status  Windows MacOS

I try to keep up with the latest version of Zig to be able to use all of its features (and bug fixes). Currently, you’ll need atleast version 0.8.0-dev.2641+55811d8da to build Luf.

Building

Section titled “Building”

To build Luf as a static library, execute the following Zig command:

zig build

Tests

Section titled “Tests”

Currently all tests are written in Zig, but there’s plans to also write behavioural tests in Luf.

To run all tests, execute the following command:

zig build test

Editor support

Section titled “Editor support”

Currently there’s support for syntax highlighting for vscode, which can be found [here]!(editors/vscode).
